What is this plant?

Harrod, OH

I I have always thought this was a Herman's Pride. I must have put the wrong plant tag in my gardening journal. Today as I was looking things over I realized that it can't be that. Do you know what it is? It's very hardy and I even moved it from our old house.

Oh sorry...I re-posted this into the right spot.

Looks like a Brunnera, there are several varieties.

I agree with Pistil...it definitely looks like Brunnera. The variety is something I'm not too sure of, though.

The smaller leaves in your pic look like 'Jack Frost' which is the variety I have. But the larger, older leaves look like a different variety.

The link below is for Brunnera 'Jack Frost'. Maybe it will help you to see more pics.

There's, also another possibility. I don't know how much sun you have your plant in, but I know that if variegated foliage is exposed to too much sun it can lose the variegation. It could also explain why the younger leaves look like 'Jack Frost', but the older ones don't.

I just spotted your other thread in the Plant ID forum, but rather than re-typing my first post over there, I decided to add another link for 'Looking Glass' Brunnera. It's definitely possible that's what it is, but it just looked a little different to me.

Anyway, here's a link for 'Looking Glass'.
