The heart-shaped leaves feature golden-yellow centres surrounded by broad blue-green margins, with the foliage colour changing subtly through the season as light levels vary. In summer, graceful stems rise above the foliage carrying soft lavender flowers, adding a delicate contrast without detracting from the impressive leaves. Its compact, clump-forming habit makes it equally at home in borders, woodland gardens or decorative patio containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e'June' is admired for its exceptional foliage, which provides colour and contrast from spring until autumn.
