A rather spectacular foliage plant which is guaranteed to cause quite a stir. Huge long greyish green leaves with deep reddish markings make quite a statement especially as they emerge in the spring when the colour is more intense. Small spikes of deep red rather insignificant flowers are borne during the summer months. Height 1m (3')
