“Berry Smoothie” is an herbaceous perennial grown for its gorgeous foliage. It has wavy edged, red leaves flushed with white and typically grows to 40 cm tall and the same wide. Cream flower spikes emerge above the foliage in summer and may reach 80 cm tall. Best performance with this plant is achieved when grown on a well-drained, sheltered site in full sun or partial shade. It is tolerant of short periods of dry and in cold climates it may die back during winter to regenerate in spring. “Berry Smoothie” is commonly used for adding colour, to contrast with other plant colours, grown in a container, included in borders, or added to a mixed planting.
