A striking, hardy perennial shrub with beautiful colouration. The Strobilanthes ‘Brunetthy’ is a compact cultivar with lance-shaped, deep purple, near black, leaves which last throughout the seasons in mild weather. Lovely, tubular lilac blooms appear throughout the bush and contrast nicely with the darker foliage beneath. Its smaller habit and generally bushy, rounded shape make it an excellent option for container planting. Plant in light, well-drained soil and keep in full or partial sunlight in a sheltered position. Can be kept outside overwinter in mild regions, but it is generally advised to overwinter indoors or under glass. Avoid excessive watering in the Winter.
