The leaves combine rich green to blue-green colouring with broad, irregular creamy-white margins, creating a bold and eye-catching appearance throughout the growing season. The contrasting leaf colours make ‘Pizzazz’ particularly useful for bringing light and interest into shady parts of the garden, where the foliage can stand out beautifully against darker green planting. It forms an attractive, substantial clump and provides excellent texture and structure in borders, woodland-style planting and containers.
