Período de floración
Guía de cuidados
Plant in partial shade or full shade in moist, humus-rich soil. Lungwort dislikes drying out — keep the soil consistently moist, especially in summer. A layer of compost in spring feeds the plant and retains moisture. Remove unsightly foliage after flowering; new leaves appear quickly.
Consejos de poda
Cut back flower stems after blooming. If foliage looks tired after summer, cut everything back hard — fresh growth appears rapidly. Divide the plant every four years to prevent exhaustion.
