Prunella ‘Summer Daze’

Prunella hybrid

Prunella ‘Summer Daze’ represents an amazing step forward in the development of this neglected genus. This new hybrid makes a compact, semi-evergreen plant with masses of showy heads of large flowers in vibrant, rich pink. The oak-leaved shaped foliage is also attractive before it flowers in the spring. Prunella is an excellent plant for the border or for use in tubs and containers. A long season of color, it begins blooming in June and continues blooming until frost. A great choice for an impulse gallon perennial.
