- Beautiful color-contrasting plant ideal for mass, group, or border
plantings. Makes an excellent container or single specimen plant.
A great alternative for shrubs, liriopes, and groundcovers. Thrives
well in full sun to part shade. Performs well in sand or clay soils.

hot and/or humid conditions. Evergreen in normal winters to 24º F.

leaves as required to maintain a neat appearance. Fertilize as
needed with a slow release fertilizer. Container grown plants will
require regular watering; garden plants will require less water
once established.
