Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Don't worry; no spreading through the garden! Light green large shamrock leaves are flecked with white that diminishes with summer warmth and returns with cooler temperatures. They form 6-inch tall mounds with pretty white flowers blooming in clusters just above the leaves all summer until frost - refreshing. From South America. Minimum temperature: 0?F
