Jack of Diamonds Siberian Bugloss is a stunning perennial that features large, silver-spotted dark green leaves and delicate sprays of bright blue flowers. This shade-loving plant creates a beautiful groundcover with its heart-shaped foliage and provides a long season of interest in woodland gardens and shaded borders.
Maintain consistent soil moisture but avoid waterlogged conditions. Remove any damaged or yellowing foliage to keep the plant looking its best. Apply a layer of organic mulch in spring to help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Divide plants every 3-4 years in early spring to maintain vigor and prevent overcrowding.
Protect from harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorching. While relatively pest-resistant, watch for slugs and snails, particularly in spring. Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring as new growth emerges.
Choose a location with dappled shade or morning sun and afternoon shade. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and as deep as the container. Amend the soil with organic matter such as compost. Remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots.
Place the plant in the hole at the same depth it was growing in the container. Backfill with soil, firming gently to eliminate air pockets. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 2-inch layer of mulch around the plant, keeping it away from the crown.
Space plants 24 inches apart to allow for mature spread. For best results, plant in groups of three or more to create an impressive display.
