'Persian Shield' leaf.


'Persian Shield' leaf. (Strobilanthes 'Persian Shield')

I needed something to fill a gap in my border - and found this beautiful plant. What a suitable name for it. Sadly, it's an annual.

This is a wonderful plant Spritz and it does very well in the house during the winter.

Thanks Mike - so I could dig it up if it's still not chomped by the dreaded snails?
