This vibrant perennial boasts eye-catching variegated leaves in shades of pink, green, and cream, creating a stunning display for boggy soils or pond margins. With a vigorous growth habit, ‘Flamingo’ thrives as a delightful semi-aquatic plant, introducing bursts of colour to the pond from March onwards and bears small white summer flowers, and as autumn approaches, the leaf colours intensify, prolonging the visual appeal.


  • Garden care:
    If using as a boggy/marginal aquatic, plant out in reliably moist or boggy soil, or pot up into a pond basket and place at the margins of a pond at a depth of 0-10cm (0-4"). If grown in a pond, the plant will extend beyond the pot, creating a mass of surface roots. Simply gather and remove them when needed.
    • Humans/Pets: TOXIC if eaten
