InfoThis one really excites me! The perfect, dark green heart-shaped leaves are bordered by beautiful wide, irregular borders of yellow and cream, like the halo of the moon on a dark, stormy night. It is a small plant that increases slowly, but it is sturdy and vigorous. Dark purple flowers in July.
Out of a dark stormy night ,'Midnight Moon' slides in and out of the racing clouds. The perfect, dark green heart-shaped leaves are bathed on the margins in the glow of moonlight. This small, sturdy sport of 'Lakeside Black Satin' is in very limited supply.
