This native of south central France is well worth its place in the garden. Nodding heads of violet blue flowers appear in spring above exquisitely spotted foliage. The 'Cevennes Lungwort' is probably the most durable Pulmonaria available, able to withstand the heat of summer, and having superb disease resistance.
