description for "Perennials: Polemonium caeruleum"
A colorful and easy to grow plant, especially for beginners. This Jacob's Ladder variety is a great way to indulge your joy of gardening. A lush mound of deep green, almost fernlike foliage appears; followed by sturdy, upright stems that support dark blue star shaped flowers. With a white eye in the center, this beautiful plant stands out in any setting. Enjoy in containers, beds or as a cut flower. The blooms closely resemble those of Phlox. Hardy in zones 2-9.
