Plant Features
Persian Shield Strobilanthes is a gorgeous ornamental that produces pink and purple leaves that are accented with silvery iridescence and a dark purple underbelly. It’s a knockout in partially shaded locations! Colors will become less impressive with too much sun. It is heat and drought tolerant and also makes an impressive houseplant!
