Think we still have eight different Brunnera cultivars, all purchased as plants in garden centres. Over the years have lost a couple of other cultivars. Brunnera are certainly survivors in our garden.
Have had the 'Emerald Mist' for perhaps ten years.
Picture taken in fall (Nov 1, 2021), after the taller summer and fall perennials have been cut back.
Re flowering, the amount may be influenced by the precise location of individual plants in the garden. For what it's worth, I noticed the most flowering on a 'Dawson's White' (have a number of them) and the 'Diane's Gold' (have one) last spring.
(Both pictures May 7, 2021)
That 'Dawson's White' above is one of those resulting from division (being pulled apart to eliminate reversions) which we were previously talking about.
A couple of personal gripes: the 'Alexander's Great' really is a bad seeder in our growing conditions. At least it doesn't also seem to run, like the species, Brunnera macrophylla. I must be a bit of a traditionalist with Brunnera: don't really like 'Diane's Gold'. To me, it looks a bit sickly!
