This bog loving plant is right out of Jurassic Park with heavily textured leaves reaching 6 ft. across. The flowers are very bizarre towers of dark red tiny flowers, on a bumpy cobb-shaped mound. This plant will die back to the ground in winter, but will shoot out of the ground in the spring to make an even bigger display the following year.
