Large pointed leaves edged with wide yellow margins; lav. flowers. This is usually the first plant out of the ground in spring and often plagued with frost damage as a result, but if you can get past the frost it's well worth the trouble and will be a showstopper.
Green leaves with wide, irregular yellow margins. Early to emerge in the spring.  A mature clump is one of the most elegant, impressive plants you can grow in the shade garden. 25-75% shade.
