Info | Heart-shaped blue-green leaves are somewhat shiny and framed with a good yellow border that has a little waviness. Great substance with slight cupping and topped with lavender flowers midsummer. 'Battle Star' in spring is a deep dark blue-green color in the center surrounded by a bright clean creamy edge. It's a medium sized plant that grows exceptionally well and is foolproof in the garden. Overall, it is one of the very best of its type to be found. |
