    A colorful, solitary Dick Wright hybrid of E. gibbiflora "Carunculata" and other plants to about 12-18 inches wide with ruffled, carunculated leaves. Most dramatic color in full sun. Tones of red, blue, and purple are most pronounced. In protected locations, the color tends toward green with highlights. Not all plants are carunculated (the leaf surfaces of some plants have no warts). Provide excellent drainage in containers.
