Hmmm...I'm in zone 5b and lost all 4 of my Majeste Pulmanaria last year to
mildew. Big bummer. Other Pulmonaria suffered too, but the rest pulled
through. Must have been that kind of spring.
When new, mine seem to droop at any dryness. This is the third year for
some, and I guess they finally have the roots that they don't wilt at any
hot day.
