Another eye-catching foliage plant for cool conditions. Bronze-tinted, branching stems support a mound of large, oval, pointed leaves marbled in shades of jade and moss green, overlaid with fine brown veins, which dissolve into a broad central, chestnut-brown V sign. Great contrast amongst ferns, tiarellas and heucheras. Synonym Persicaria virginiana var. filiformis 'Compton's Red'.
