About
This striking plant features showy, richly hued foliage that provides excellent contrast of color, texture and form. Use in combination pots or in the garden. Particularly striking when mixed with silver foliages or yellow flowers. Very heat and cold tolerant. Vigorously reseeds. Prefers moist, well-drained soil.
