I not only saved this plant over winter, but got 10 more from cuttings off of it which rooted in less than 4 weeks.

I saw a picture of this plant online and knew I wanted to have it. I was shocked that Walmart got in a few this spring so I grabbed up 2 of them. It looks wonderful in my shade area with sweet potato vines around it.

This died back over winter and came back from roots. This is grown in 80% shade and is doing great.
