A rather special variegated, large leaved evergreen shrub with hand-like leaves. The variegation is quite random and fine, giving a lovely look to the plant especially in the winter. A tolerant shrub with an ability to thrive in both sun and shade. Good as a focal plant where, when mature it will produce large trusses of creamy-white flowers during the summer months. Height 2m (6') spread 2m (6')
