Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ruffled, purple red flowers with scarlet spotting cover this plant in early May. Leathery green leaves turn a rich mahogany in winter. As long as it receives adequate summer irrigation will tolerate most sunny locations without a problem.

Compact trusses of ruffled purple red flowers with scarlet spotting cover this robust plant in early May. This is a great little lepidote with leathery light green leaves that turn a lovely mahogany in the winter. Give 'Landmark' a prominent spot in the landscape; it can take some pretty good sun. ('Counterpoint' x 'Carolina Rose')
