Big, colorful foliage and showy summer bloom create a winning combination for this plant in any sunny or partially shaded garden. You'll find it hard to take your eyes off this plant's foliage as it emerges a stunning chocolate-maroon color with deep purple on its back and unfurls up to 6" in diameter to form a rounded, full size mound that, alone, would be a striking addition to any landscape, but the color has just begun! In August see the arrival of thick sturdy flower stalks that rise from the foliage and extend above to reveal brilliant yellow-orange daisy-like flowers that, offset by its remarkable foliage, will make this plant the center of attention without a doubt. 'Britt Marie Crawford' will thrive in full sun with ample, constant moisture but would prefer a partially shaded spot if the moisture level is lower.
Grows best in rich moist, well-drained soil that is not allowed to dry out. Avoid hot afternoon sun to prevent wilting.
