A stunning herbaceous perennial prized for its dark, almost black, ruffled foliage. Glossy, dark brown to black leaves with heavily ruffled edges. In late spring to early summer, it produces panicles of small, bell-shaped pink flowers on slender stems that rise above the foliage. Grows to about 30 cm tall and 40 cm wide. Prefers well-drained soil and can thrive in part shade to full sun. Drought-tolerant once established.
