Violet False Eranthemum is an upright, open shrub with few branches unless the stems are clipped out periodically when young. The garden gains an exquisite dimension, thanks to a dense mass of purple leaves. Excellent for contrasting with plants that have green or golden foliage. In case of hot areas, the plant prefers some shade. An excellent accent plant for patio or porch planters. Tubular white flowers, 2.5 cm long, with rose-red or purple spots at the bases, are produced in dense, terminal spikes that reach a length of 18 cm during the summer.

They are typically transported as bare roots in the spring, when plants are completely dormant and before they have sprouted leaves.
