We thank Gina Cardoza for sharing this plant with us. Selected from an Asiatic member of the Dead Nettle family, Dracocephalum argunense 'Fuji Blue' is distinguished by the pale blue color of its flowers which form in dense whorled, terminal heads that are finely haired. The linear leaves are also covered in fine hair. Individual flowers are pouch-like with the upper lip of the flower tilted down to cover entry to the depths of the flower. This clumping perennial is suitable for a sunny garden.
