Instructions
Top Tip
Mulch around Pulmonaria plants with organic material to retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and suppress weeds while maintaining healthy growth.
How to Water
Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply during dry spells, particularly in the summer, but allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.
How to Plant
Plant Pulmonaria in moist, well-drained soil in partial to full shade. Enrich the soil with organic matter like compost. Space plants 30-45cm apart to allow for growth. Position the crown at soil level, backfill, firm gently, and water thoroughly after planting.
