Plant details
An unusual plant, this has striking, large, oval pleated leaves that form a loose rosette at the base of the upright flower stems dotted with white blooms, green inside, in mid- and late summer. It is a highly architectural perennial that needs siting where the whole plant is on view and will not get smothered by vigorous neighbours. It makes a good centre-piece for a focal point in a mixed planting in shade.
