GardenersDream Polemonium Heaven Scent

• Characteristics: Deciduous perennial, purple-tinted foliage that turns to green as the season moves on, clusters of purple-blue bell shaped flowers, blooms late spring to mid summer, hardy, low maintenance
• Growth and Spread: Ultimate height and spread of 0.45m
• Care and Maintenance: Polemonium Heaven Scent grows best when planted in moist, but not waterlogged soil.  It enjoys full sun or partial shade and is fully hardy. As the flowers fade, cut the plant back to stimulate a second bloom. Prune stems back to the ground in autumn.
• Period of Interest: Spring and summer. Dark purple foliage appears in spring with purple-blue flowers blooming from May to July, after which the foliage turns green.

Polemonium Heaven Scent, commonly known as Jacob’s Ladder, is a classic perennial that suits most settings. Dark purple-bronze leaves emerge in spring, swiftly followed by clusters of purple-blue bell shaped flowers. As the flowers begin to fade, the foliage evolves into a deep green hue.

As the name might suggest, Polemonium Heaven Scent is highly fragrant and will attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators. This bushy clump forming perennial grows well in almost any soil and, other than cutting back stems, requires little maintenance to remain healthy and attractive.

Polemonium Heaven Scent will retreat back below ground level in autumn and re-emerge with new growth in spring. The plant is fully hardy, easy to grow and will reach its ultimate height and spread within 2-5 years.
