Default Rusty pulmonaria

I had a pulmonaria ('blue ensign') delivered last week from a mail
order supplier in a batch of other perennials. The leaves have some
sort of rusty thing going on around their edges. Will the plant recover
from this, or should I ask them to send me another one.

Ask them to send you another one and plant both ;-))

Apart from rust mine eventually succumb to powdery mildew at which stage I
chop the lot down and usually end up with nice new decorative leaves quite
quickly.
