Details

Small, lightly cupped gold heart shaped leaves that are surrounded with a 1/2" medium green margin. As the plant matures, the border becomes wider and darker green. Leaves have a matte finish on top and are waxy underneath. Great substance and multiplies rapidly. A beautiful little plant for the rockery, borders or containers. Blooms with lavender flowers on 16" scapes. Seems to have two patterns it settles into, either the wide-margin type or the narrow. Both types are observed in nursery stock. A sport of 'Little Aurora.'
