The ‘Can Can’ is a colourful plant that is perfect for adding a bold, dramatic splash of colour. The slender, arching leaves emerge red and pink; as they mature they turn to shades of cream and green, giving you an array of colours at the same time. The fountain of strappy leaves makes this a great choice for adding structure and we love it in a container display on a sunny patio. In hot summers you may get an added show of small, scented white flowers and these are popular with the bees. This is a low-maintenance plant, but it does require some frost protection in particularly cold areas.
