Omphalode

Omphalodes or Small Borage are spreading perennials perfect for an area of undergrowth with a spreading or compact shape. Their semi-evergreen or deciduous foliage and their small bouquet-like flowers are loved in shady flower beds or rockeries. These plants are very easy to grow, they thrive in all types of soil. They have a rather slow growth but are robust plants! The variety Omphalode Verna forms a clump of medium green leaves and bright blue flowers with white eyes, with a spreading form and it flowers from March to May. The Omphalodes Cappadocica or Venus's Navel varieties have more variegated blue/white colors and a compact shape and it flowers from April to May.
