Add lush foliage and colour to your garden with this beautiful, groundcover. A real standout in the garden, this plant has a compact, spreading habit and produces rich, deep burgundy foliage. It is shorter than its common form, which makes it perfect for bare areas and garden borders. This Alternanthera is a very hardy plant as it loves humidity and can also tolerate frost better than most forms. Choose a sheltered position in very cold climates.
