Vibrant blooms over dramatically dark foliage.
It's hard to say which is more attractive, the fiery red blooms or the deep purple-black leaves that surround them. We like to think they work in harmony to create a truly eye-popping plant. Flowers are 10 cm in diameter with rounded petals that surround dark purple-and-yellow centres. Fast growing and easy to maintain.
