The story

Pink fireworks on dark leaves.

Glossy, deep purple, almost black foliage, then 7–8 in. hot pink flowers all through late summer. The contrast is loud in the best way.

Light

Full sun for the darkest leaves and the most flowers.

Water

Water deeply and often; it handles wet soil better than drought.

Planting

Plant in spring once the soil is warm, in rich soil, crown at soil level.

Dark foliage all season and huge flowers at the end of it.
