Description
Strobilanthes maculata is a unique and ornamental perennial known for its eye-catching spotted foliage and bright purple flowers. The plant features broad, dark green leaves with distinctive lighter spots, giving it a dramatic, textured look. In late summer to fall, it produces vibrant, tubular purple flowers that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, adding seasonal color and visual interest to the garden.

Hardy in USDA zones 9-11, it requires minimal care once established and is well-suited for both shaded and sun-drenched garden spaces. Whether planted for its striking foliage, colorful flowers, or as part of a pollinator garden, Strobilanthes maculata adds beauty and a touch of the exotic to any landscape.
