The foliage of this American woodland selection is gently-lobed with its pretty leaves emerging purple in spring before maturing to deep green with heavy purple veining and a soft pewter overlay later in summer. Sprays of small ivory bell-shaped flowers on 20" stalks appear in late spring, a bit earlier than Heucheras, they are beautiful floating above the 12" mound of colorful leaves. S-Sh/M
