Hardy Perennial. Easy to grow groundcover that does well in average soils and part shade. This is the earliest polemonium to flower. It usually has pale blue petals with white stamens, on foliage of a particularly bright spring green. It grows in wide, dense mats. Lovely alternating leaves and airy graceful blooms of cup-shaped blue flowers are the appeal of this hardy selection. Due to its low-growing habit, this perennial is often selected for growing at the front of the border.
