Plants that flower in shade are rare, and rarer still is it to find one with bright colors. This plant dies back to the ground when the weather gets cold and it is the very last plant to come up every spring.
This plant is from the Caribbean. It does not like strong sun, keep it from direct sun. Other growers report it does better in areas away from sprinkler heads so go easy on the water but take care not to let it dry out.
This plant will reach about 2′ tall and is bushy in form.
It has been a totally care free plant so far, I planted it 2 years back.

This plant dies back and reappears about the same time as the hostas do. I’m planning on moving it a little bit come spring.
