  • Notes

This charming, off fashioned perennial that performs well in dry shade areas. Leaves are a longish heart-shape, and are a soft dull green, mostly mounded at the base, thought the tall stems also have some leaves. The flowers are pale violet blue, are bell-shaped, are are arranged along one side of the flower stem. Blooms early to mid summer and then tends to go dormant, though sometimes a later, second blooming may occur in the fall. 18 to 24 inches tall. It is narrow, but in time the plant will spread gently.
