If it survives I do plan to move it, I hope it does. I wondered why it looked

They are not that HARD to raise. But your plants should have put on a good
flush of new leaves in August.
Pulmonaria tend to bloom early and then the leaves expand out, then in mid
summer when the temps get higher they take a rest and then start growing again
in august-September.
They will grow well for me in my dry clay but do best in good rich moist soil.
