Among the most popular perennial for shaded areas these plants form a sturdy mound of foliage, topped with lily-like blooms. This selection features round, blue-green margins that later in the season go blue and yellow centered leaves that are cupped with the ability to hold water. Stalks of pale lavender flowers rise above in midsummer.
