Brunnera 'Looking Glass': Mirror-Like Silver Foliage

Brunnera macrophylla 'Looking Glass' – Reflective Beauty

'Looking Glass' takes silver foliage to the next level with heart-shaped leaves that are almost entirely mirrored silver, staying largely evergreen. Delicate blue forget-me-not flowers emerge in spring, creating a stunning contrast.

Garden Performance

This cultivar is notably drought-tolerant once established and resistant to most pests. It forms a clump a little over a foot tall and nearly as wide, with a slightly spreading habit. Ideal for woodland gardens, shade borders, containers, or waterside plantings.

Cultivation Tips

Grow in part to full shade in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Divide plants or sow seeds in a cold frame in early spring; root cuttings can be taken in winter.
