This ornamental Fleeceflower is a vigorous, bushy perennial known for its highly attractive, lance-shaped green leaves that are frequently marked with dark, reddish-brown chevrons. In late summer, it produces masses of narrow, upright, poker-like spikes of tiny, bright crimson-red flowers that provide a long-lasting splash of vibrant colour.

It is an incredibly tough and adaptable plant that thrives in full sun or partial shade and prefers moist, fertile soil. It has a spreading habit and can be quite robust; chop it back hard to control its size if it begins to dominate the border, and divide the large clumps every few years.
