It seems there are varying degrees of silver foliage, some with greenish tints. These are about the best of my lots.

Carol, that is a fantastic plant. I love the contrast between the leaf and the stems. The color of the stems just pop!

Like Terry, I think the red stems and silvery green leaves look beautiful together. Very special!

I Love it. Very interesting combination of colors. I wouldn't mind to own it.

The seed came from Tim, by the way. I'm sure he recognizes it!
Coum, I find, is much fussier than hederifolium in my garden. I'll look for an appropriate spot.

The second photograph is very nice. I like the beading around the edge.

They are great, the more you look the more details you see.

What's interesting about those seedlings Carol, is that they are derive from a totally silver leaved parent plant. Your plant with the silver leaf and very narrow Xmas tree pattern is stunning. I like things that make me look more closely, and that leaf certainly does that.
