Hemigraphis

Hemigraphis is notable for its vibrant, often purple-tinted leaves, which present a textured surface with fine hairs. This low-growing perennial thrives in moist, shaded environments, where its spreading habit allows it to form dense, decorative ground covers. The plant's ornamental appeal is enhanced by its modest white flowers, often overlooked amid the striking foliage.
