Info10" tall. Part Sun to Light Shade.
Our new introduction is an open pollinated seedling from the giant H. 'Sum and Substance'. The 5" wide heart shaped leaves emerge dull green, and soon change to a nice chartreuse gold. About this time, the jet black scapes emerge that contrast well with the foliage. The 2' wide clumps are topped with 22" scapes of medium lavender flowers.
