Plant description
Sought after by the designers, these elegant shade-loving perennials have attractive foliage, which emerges in spring with a bronze flush before turning rich green. Then, in late spring or early summer, pendent tubular flowers appear, which vary in colour from creamy white to purplish-red, and these are followed by deepest crimson berries. A wonderful addition to the woodland garden, it's ideal for underplanting, and will look great when planted with ferns or hostas.
