watering
Lungwort (Pulmonaria 'Majesté') should be watered 1-2 times a week. This plant prefers moist, but not wet, soil. Water deeply but allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. In hot, dry weather, it may require additional watering for healthy growth. During winter, water approximately once a week and reduce watering only when the weather conditions are particularly cold. It is important to note that while lungwort prefers moist soil, it does not enjoy water logged conditions or standing water.
sunlight
For optimal growth, Lungwort (Pulmonaria 'Majesté') plants should receive 4 to 6 hours of direct or indirect sunlight daily. The best time for this exposure is in the morning or late afternoon. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods as this could damage or stress the plant's foliage. Too much direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day, could cause sunburn, fading of flower colors, or wilting of leaves. Lungworts prefer partially shaded conditions, with dappled light all day if possible.
pruning
Pruning lungwort (Pulmonaria 'Majesté') should be done in late winter or early spring. Pruning should consist of gently cutting the flower stems back to the basal foliage. Thicker stems can be cut as close to the ground as possible. Any dead or damaged foliage should be removed. It is important to avoid pruning too much as this can prevent the plant from producing flowers.
