The leaves of this vigorous growing plant are its distinguishing feature. Stunning variegation of three colors - deep green, light green and cream - immediately draw your eye. The free-flowering white lacecap heads are made up of soft cream sterile sepals with blue or pink tinted fertile flowers. This is possibly part of the Mariesii lineage (Mariesii Variegata) but others say it was bred in Italy before 1860.
