Snail plant
Snailweed, also Persicaria aff. Superba', is a semi-evergreen perennial that spreads like a carpet over the ground. The simple, small, bell-shaped flowers, which can be white or pink, are particularly attractive. With age this colour can turn to a deep crimson. These grow in long-lived stems or panicles. The leaves grow dark green and elliptical. They often have a wonderful red-green colour before turning bronze in the autumn.
