I feature beautiful showy and plentiful cream flowers with pink and cinnamon tinges on the rear with an open cup shape centred by yellow stamens in winter and early spring.
Hardy with good form I look great even when not in flower forming a low mound of large leathery, evergreen, slightly marbled green leaves.
I am the perfect choice for shaded locations such as under deciduous trees though I will bloom less in heavy shade.
Adaptable I am equally happy grown in pots and other containers.
