Rounded, metallic silver leaves are bordered and veined with deep wine red. Flowers are tiny, white, tinged with pink blooming profusely in the spring. Very trim and tidy habit, forming a neat mound.

Very robust, dramatic display of boldly veined, swordlike leaves with large, violet-blue flowers accented by whitish markings at the base of the sepals. Petals and sepals spread out flat making it an attractive place for feeding by hummingbirds.

Showy, clear, vivid pink pin cushion-like flowers atop of fragrant foliage and stems, highly mildew resistant. Long blooming season. A Canadian Ornamental Plant Foundation introduction. Great combined with bright blues, whites and yellows in the garden. Cherished by butterflies and hummingbirds. Also makes an excellent cut flower!
