Its main attraction is the foliage: glossy green leaves traced with a striking network of golden-yellow veins that brighten shady corners and mixed shrub borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Indian conditions it grows happily in warm, humid climates and performs well across the plains and coastal belts. It produces small tubular white flowers marked with rosy-purple spots, but it is grown chiefly for its colourful, year-round foliage rather than its blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompact and easy to maintain, it is widely used for low hedges, foundation plantings, container displays and as a foliage accent.
