This Mildred Seaver introduction has lately been gaining in popularity. Whether because of its name or durable constitution, 'Komodo Dragon' forms a large mound (sometimes to seven feet!) of heart-shaped gray-green leaves with bold ribbing. Pale lavender flowers open in early summer. A good variety for the back of the border or specimen use.
