This darling shines with its robust nature. This botanical attraction enchants with its remarkably large and beautiful appearance. The Caucasian forget-me-not 'Looking Glass' belongs to the rough-leaved family. In its appearance, it combines the collected fascinating splendor. It also has a graceful elegance. The radiant fascination of Brunnera macrophylla 'Looking Glass' comes from its large and beautiful foliage. This is characterized by unusual and beautiful leaves. The lovely and wonderful flower heads are another visual bonus. During the flowering period, the delicate flowers on the branched stems are striking. This feature gives the Caucasian forget-me-not 'Looking Glass' a contrasting and harmonious appearance. It appears as a versatile and beautiful garden decoration. Combined planting with other small-leaved and large-flowered ornamental plants enhances the impressively ravishing appearance of the perennial. Planting it as a single plant or in a group unleashes a magical effect on the viewer. The cultivation of the Caucasian forget-me-not 'Looking Glass' can be traced back to the US breeder Walters Garden. Since then, it has been a flowering favorite in borders, perennial beds and at the edge of shrubs. The popularity of Brunnera macrophylla 'Looking Glass' can also be attributed to its good winter hardiness. It forms a broad, bushy and upright habit with branching stems. Over time, it develops a height of 20 to 40 centimeters and a similar diameter. There is enough space for up to eight plants on one square meter. A remarkable detail of this leaf mauve curiosity is the beautiful, silvery color of the strikingly large foliage. The leaves of the Caucasian forget-me-not 'Looking Glass' have long stalks. This ensures uniform, beautiful foliage that is branched and almost upright on a completely round surface. As a ground cover, it can create beautiful foliage. The details such as the foliage in a contrasting silver color remain unchanged.
