Polemonium Stairway to Heaven
A colourful cultivar with variegated green foliage that has white leaf margins. Margins become tinged with pink as a result of either direct sunlight or cooler weather. In late spring, pale violet-blue, bell-shaped flowers bloom for many weeks, an ideal groundcover in areas with average to moist soils, thriving in light shade beneath deciduous trees.
