Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Can you say FABULOUS FOLIAGE? Queen of the woodland with her large octagonal leaves (up to 18”) marked with a kaleidoscope pattern of silver and burgundy-black perch on upright stems like lily pads. Red drooping flowers in clusters hang below the foliage in summer on sexually mature plants. Royalty needs riches, so give her soil with a wealth of humus and don’t let her dry out (but don’t drown her either!); keep her in the shade. Deer and rabbit resistant. Slowly expanding clump 14-18” tall. High on the plant lust scale
