Desdemona Leopard Plant is a shade loving herbaceous perennial that forms a basal mound of huge heart-shaped leathery dark foliage on long stocks.  New foliage emerges purplish-red and matures to dark brown green with purplish undersides.  Orange-yellow daisy like flowers bloom in mid summer.  Best color in part sun and rich moist well-drained soil.
