These are around 1 cm wide but up to 30 cms or more long, toothed and form very attractive rosettes in the centre of which are the flowers. The form canaliculata has narrower leaves that the species.\u003c\/div\u003e    \u003cdiv\u003e  Here we have the main attraction, blue flowers surrounded by a bright red leaf colouration which lasts for weeks in the autumn and early winter.\u003c\/div\u003e    \u003cdiv\u003e Easy in a sunny site and not too wet soil.
