I have several V. Tovara volunteers that popped up in a bad spot in the garden. If anyone wants them I'll send them for postage.

Ohhh my goodness, Me, me, me jumping up and down and frantically waving my hands. I'd LOVE to pay postage for them. I can Paypal postage if that works for you.

Hi Sharon,

They're yours. They're really pretty but have a bad habit of reseeding where you don't want them. They aren't difficult to pull but instead of composting them I thought that someone here might like them.

karyn1, I've been looking for the type with the strong white variegation WITHOUT the maroon chevron, Tovara 'Variegata.'. It is shown in the second photo in the link from a plant nursery in the UK. Does anyone know where to get starts for it? What type is yours?

Persicaria virginiana. (syn. Tovara) 'Painter’s Palette'
A most enthusiastically variegated plant first discovered by Eric Smith. The green of the leaf almost disappears under much cream splashing and the central chevron is a bright reddish brown. It should be planted out of direct sunlight and brightens up darker corners like a beacon. 2.5 ft. virginiana. (syn. Tovara) 'Painter’s Palette' Add to basket
Rowden Gardens


Persicaria virginiana. (syn. Tovara) 'Variegata'
Another outstanding foliage plant. Rounder and broader leaves are most boldly splashed with cream. Highly decorative it is one of those plants that gives excellent colour throughout the season. Invaluable. 2.5 ft.
