Leopard Plant

The leopard plant is the perfect choice if you want something nice and pretty to grow around water features and especially in rain gardens. With its pretty little yellow flowers, which can easily bloom in early summer, you will have something in your garden that’s very similar to daisies, but easier to maintain!

Not to mention its very large leaves, with their interesting dark purple and green tones, which can really spice up your garden. The plant can reach 2 to 3 feet tall, and it is highly recommended to water it as many times as possible, so the soil never dries out. Plus, make sure it also has some shade, especially if you live in an area with hot weather.
