Product Description

I am always on the lookout for plants which need little looking after. Omphalodes linifolia self sow gently from one year to the next & flower early.

March, April & May are the useful times to have flowers to carpet the ground under your bulbs & just emerging herbaceous perennials. That’s exactly when this beautiful & pure looking plant is at its best – with lovely white flowers & silverygreen leaves. Highly recommended & it makes an excellent long-lasting cut flower.
