Info | Leaves emerge in the spring with a cream interior and a dark green margin, turning to a medium green, variegated leaf by summer and to a frosty blue by fall. Flowers are white with a hint of lavender in June. Color will last longer in a shaded area. Slow multiplier. Cream/green, changes to blue. Heavy substance to the leaves, dark green edging the cream center. The centers will darken somewhat during the season, but it always remains a fine specimen plant. A slow grower. Near-white flowers. |
