It is hard to ignore this shade lover that sports mounds of long leaves with spiny margins that flush a brilliant maroon in spring. Airy cream-colored flowers are held above the foliage in mid to late spring giving this plant a unique look. Outstanding when massed as a groundcover in a shady area. Easy to grow with few pest issues. Incredible garden texture from foliage and flowers. Deer and rabbit tolerant.
