Striking, flame-shaped white leaves with wide, green borders cascade from this perennial. Leaves are upright in young plants, but as plants mature they form a graceful arching mound. Pale lavender flowers on creamy white scapes bloom in early summer. Plants thrive in partial shade and will grow to at least 2 feet in height and nearly twice as wide. This is a cold-hardy plant, first introduced six years ago.
