Brunnera macrophylla ‘Alexander’s Great’

A huge Brunnera like 'Jack Frost' on steroids. 'Alexander's Great' has amazing size and presence in the shade garden.

This giant Brunnera looks just like the classic ‘Jack Frost’ except for it’s size. ‘Alexander’s Great’ will grow nearly a foot and half tall and two and a half feet wide! It has dramatic silver foliage and the dainty blue forget-me-not flowers that we love from this genus. Discovered by plantsman Alexander Zukeivich in his Belarus garden. This is a plant for a big garden or a big pot!
