Description
A compact variety from the Pyrenees with beautifully marbled leaves. The flowers can be a wonderful apple blossom pink, powder blue or pure white, all with yellowish filaments.Height 8-10 cm
Hepatica var. pyrenaica should be planted on a cool, well-drained slope in a light fluffy soil rich in leaf mould. It is essential that they are exposed to early spring sunshine, but they must receive plenty of shade immediately after flowering and especially during the heat of the summer. They will thrive under deciduous trees and shrubs or in crevices in the rock garden, performing best where there is good humidity. They respond well to a top-dressing of leaf-mould in autumn and an annual feed of fish, blood and bone in late winter. Remove old leaves just before flowering.
