The blue certainly does look like mertensia, but is Pulmonaria angustifolia (blue lungbane).
I get a lot more mileage here from lungbanes/lungworts than I do from mertensia.


It is a beautiful intense blue! Does it bloom longer than the Mertensia, and does the foliage stay nice?
There is always kind of a hole where my mertensia fades away but I love the color. If I could find
something with the same blue and better habits I would love it! Smiling
