arching leaves two feet long that 
sweep over to the ground. The leai

shiny green, edged with a one-hali 
band of white. The very pale lavender 
flowers, almost white, are dainty, bell- 
shaped, spread along a_ three-foot 
stalk and start blooming in early July. 
Two or three of these plants with the 
large green and white leaves growing 
up from the center of the plants and 
curving over again form a mass of in- 
teresting foliage, very restful and 
pleasing, and presenting a fascinating 
study in leaf form. It makes rather 
slow growth.
