Comments: A triploid with red flowers becoming lighter red in the throat. Carmine-red spotting on the dorsal lobes and ruffled edges topped off with long white anthers make this a show-stopper for any garden. Wide leaves are a dark green and attractive year-round. Proven to be heat tolerant in the southeast, though does best in shadier areas. Photo courtesy of Lonnie Player.
