Nursery contributed plant descriptions

An absolutely elegant, fast growing plant for shade. The arching, heart-shaped leaves are beautifully green & white variegated, lighting up a shady area. This rare “Money Plant” also bears white blooms in late Spring or Summer followed by the well known translucent, silvery, flat seed pods, wonderful for dried arrangements. To 3’ tall, it grows in sun or shade by the coast & shade inland. Drought tolerant, not fussy about soil, reseeds easily, coming true from seed. NOTE: PLANTS LOOK GREEN WHEN SMALL BUT TRUST ME, THEY WILL VARIEGATE AS THEY GROW OLDER!! Easy!
