Slow-growing evergreen shrub to 2’ tall x 2-3’ wide. This unique variety forms a clumping mound of cup-shaped multi-colored leaves that exhibit a wonderful blend of green and purplish-red throughout the warmer months intensifying to more vibrant shades of deep-purple and red in the cooler months of fall and winter. This variety rarely if ever flowers. Well suited as an accent border or massed groundcover and does well in containers. Prefers well-drained soil regular watering and a sun to moderate shade exposure.
