Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ – Spotted Lungwort
Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ is a striking spring-flowering perennial known for its vivid raspberry-pink flowers and beautifully spotted foliage. The silver-speckled leaves create an attractive display throughout the season, while the colourful blooms provide an early burst of colour in shaded areas of the garden.
In early to mid-spring, clusters of rich raspberry-pink flowers appear on upright stems above the decorative foliage. These cheerful blooms bring welcome colour to borders just as the garden begins to awaken after winter.
Growing to around 25–30 cm in height with a spread of 35–40 cm, Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ forms neat, spreading clumps that make excellent groundcover for shaded borders and woodland-style planting.
This hardy perennial thrives in partial shade to full shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. It pairs beautifully with hellebores, hostas, and ferns, and is particularly effective planted in groups where its colourful flowers and patterned foliage can be fully appreciated.
Removing older leaves after flowering will encourage fresh new foliage and help maintain a tidy appearance throughout the growing season.
Flowering Period
March – April: Raspberry-pink flowers begin to appear above spotted foliage
April – May: Peak flowering with clusters of vibrant blooms
Late spring onwards: Decorative foliage remains attractive throughout the season
With its colourful flowers and distinctive silver-speckled leaves, Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ is a fantastic choice for adding early colour and texture to shaded borders and woodland gardens.
