"The Lungwort Milky Way, 'Pulmonaria', also known as Bethlehem Sage, is a great ground cover for any shady area, helping to lighten up parts of the garden. The pink and white flowers bloom in April and fade to blue and make a great contrast to the foliage. The foliage is lance-shaped and heavily spotted with silver, not to mention mildew resistant. It is a wonderful contrast with hostas, under shrubs and along paths. æMilky WayÆ is a vigorous grower and resistant to slugs and is great for a first time gardener."
