Polemonium cae. 'Bambino Blue'

Polemonium cae. 'Bambino Blue' is a compact Jacob's ladder forming neat clumps of fresh green, ladder-like foliage, topped with clear blue blooms from late spring into early summer. It thrives in sun or light shade and prefers fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil, making a dependable, fully hardy choice for the front of mixed borders in Irish gardens.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
