The multicolored foliage boasts colors of red, green, and yellow. This plant stays petite, barely reaching a foot in height, but it spreads beautifully and makes an excellent groundcover for the dry shady areas of your garden. This plant is as tough as it is interesting as it resists deer, rabbits and drought once established. Generally unbothered by common bugs and diseases, though one should keep a watch for aphids.
