This fabulous tropical foliage plant brings dramatic depth and contrast to any planting scheme.

Strobilanthes anisophyllus 'Assam' is a tender subshrub with dark purple to near-black leaves that create an intense backdrop for its lilac-tinted, white trumpet flowers, which appear in elegant terminal spikes. Compact in habit, it is perfectly suited to garden borders, or bedding displays in containers, adding a bold focal point in sunny to partially shaded spots.

This tender cultivar is both heat and drought tolerant, creating a lush, exotic feel with its dark colour enhancing both cooler and hotter colour palettes. This tender shrub should be moved into a frost free location to overwinter. Ultimate height: 1m (3.2ft). Ultimate spread: 60cm (24in) to 90cm (35in).

Growing Information

Grow in well drained soil in full sun to partial shade avoiding the hottest midday sun. Pinch out growing tips to encourage bushiness. Bring into a frost-free position indoors to overwinter.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

Large Non-standard items may incur a higher, lorry delivery charge. Charges will be calculated at checkout, but an example of the lorry charges are listed below.

Red - £9.99.
Purple - £2.99.

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
