Description

This unusual cultivar of plantain forms a rosette of really stunning, large, reddish maroon leaves. The color seems more pronounced in full sun locations and the leaves contain the same medicinal qualities of other plantain varieties. Great for topical application to insect stings, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory and incredibly soothing for irritated skin. A favorite ingredient for a salve or ointment. Self sows readily. Hardy to zone 5.
