Varigated foliage is just great isnt it. Nature never fails to amaze. Lovely.

Our gardens here have lots of these plants growing a bit like weeds, Louise ... I think just about everyone has had one or more of these in their garden beds at some time.

Bernieh:

Love the variegation! It's very healthy! I have several...they're tough plants in pots or in the ground. : > )

They sure are tough ... I've always had them in the ground somewhere in my gardens ... but this one is in a pot out in the courtyard at the moment. Eventually I'll plant it in the ground.

Bernieh:

They are tough and quite drought tolerant also...in pots they seem to need even less water.
