Elongated, almost heart-shaped green leaves (12" long by 8" wide), on long upward petioles have deeply impressed veins, wavy margins and pointed tips. Flowering scapes tower above the foliage mound up to 60" tall in summer in August & September, bearing 20-30 funnel-shaped pale purple to white flowers with yellow anthers. Slug resistant but needs to be in dappled shade.
