Pot Size: 1 litre (deep) Price: £12.00 Description: In this cultivar the leaf is marked by lots of pale spotting. Similar to most species it arises from a relatively strong slowly creeping rhizome, forming small colonies of upright parchment textured glossy evergreen leaves which are oblong-lanceolate to 43 cm long by about 8 cm wide on petioles to 25 cm long. Whilst still bearing the annual flowering directly from the rhizome (hence do not bury them deeply) solitary campanulate 6-lobed purple flowers late summer to autumn. We have grown this species outside for many years in shelter from freezing winds in a soil that does not waterlog, in dense to light shade.
