Brunnera macrophylla ‘King’s Ransom’ – 2026

Brunnera macrophylla ‘King’s Ransom’ is a hardy, perennial plant admired for its large, heart-shaped leaves that are silver with green veins, providing striking year-round foliage interest in shaded borders, woodland gardens, and underplantings. In spring, it produces sprays of small, delicate blue flowers that attract bees and other pollinators, adding early-season colour and supporting garden biodiversity. Its clumping habit and bold, patterned foliage make it ideal for naturalistic plantings or as a structural element in mixed perennial borders, combining ornamental leaves with subtle blooms for consistent garden appeal.

Thriving in partial to full shade with moist, well-drained soil, Brunnera macrophylla ‘King’s Ransom’ benefits from removal of spent flower stems and occasional trimming of older leaves to maintain a tidy appearance. Hardy and resilient, it adapts well to a variety of garden conditions, making it suitable for woodland-style gardens, shaded borders, or as groundcover. Its combination of decorative foliage, attractive blue flowers, and pollinator-friendly blooms ensures it is a reliable and charming addition to any shaded garden.
