Blue Plantain Lily is a shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its attractive foliage. The large dark green basal leaves have widely spaced veining, wavy margins and develop strong ribbing as they mature. Small bell-like purple flowers raise up on pale green scapes in late summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best color in partial sun and moist well-drained soils.
