Outstandingly brilliant foliage plant, deserving good soil for the best effect. Leaves have broad zonal rings of chocolate brown. Waxy red flowers in spring to 60cm. Shade or part shade.

Collected in Croatia by Elizabeth Strangman in 1990. This must be propagated by division only as seedlings do not retain the correct flower colour even if the leaf looks right.
