This variety is disease resistant with fabulous foliage and stem interest, and a tidy clumping habit. Well-suited to a tropical program, it makes a bold statement in the garden or landscape. The drama of the foliage is increased when backlit as the veins show through. The petioles (stems) are also ornamental.
