I am Leopard Plant. My family originated from Japan
I feature large purple to chocolate broard glossy leaves and look lush with a clumping naturally rounded form.
My blooms are bright yellow and daisy on upright stems that create striking contrast with my lush foliage and appear from late summer into autumn. I thrive in moist well drained soils, but also tolerate poor soils. I am ideal as an indoor plant. Planted out in the garden I do best in a sheltered location, but enjoy full sun to part shade. I am great at creating an impact indoors and in tropical and ‘Lush” style gardens. |
