| South African relatives of viper's bugloss, anchusas bring much needed blue color to summer borders. |
| Common bugloss has fleshy, hairy leaves that grow smaller in size towards the top of the stem. |
| Crato speaks against all herbs and worts, except bugloss, fennel, parsley, dill, bawm, succory. |
| Suitable for the less formal border are foxglove, cranesbill, and viper's bugloss. |
| The bugloss belongs to what may be called beautiful weeds, despite its rough and bristly stalk. |
| The first thing you will notice about the Viper's bugloss is the way the rows of flower-buds curl like a scorpion. |
