Siberian Bugloss a.k.a. Brunnera Macrophylla

The lovely heart-shaped leaves of this plant grow to about 1 foot long on 1 to 2-foot-tall plants that colonize, creating lots of beautiful ground cover.

Also mistaken for the forget-me-not, Siberian Bugloss has bright blue flowers that bloom for about a month in the springtime. They love whole to partial shade and thrive in zones 3 to 7, and prefer moist but well-draining soil.

Umbrella Plant a.k.a. Darmera Peltata

The big, lily-pad-like leaves of the Umbrella plant look gorgeous in any outdoor space. And the best part is that this plant even has flowers during the spring months. They thrive in moist soil.

But it’s worth noting that it can be an aggressive plant, so you should give it plenty of space. This big-leaf outdoor plant prefers partial to full shade and is easy to maintain.
