Polemonium ‘Hurricane Ridge’
Foliage favorite for the garden with many improvements. Named for one of the truest bluest views of the Olympic mountains in Washington State, where this nativar originates. It is a tough, hardy perennial that tolerates both sun and shade well. Repeating curved frond-like foliage has an attractive geometric element that is pleasing to the eye throughout its growth. Light lilac-blue toned flowers grace the top of the crisp green leafed cyclone mid-summer. Great for containers, added foliage texture and mixed sun/shade locations.
