A clump-forming, rhizomatous, hardy evergreen perennial with long, narrow, broadly lance-shaped glossy dark green leaves with pale yellow-green spots. Rarely, small, star-shaped purple-red flowers appear at the base of the plant in late summer to autumn. Although most often grown as a houseplant, it is also a useful garden plant in mild areas, and is tolerant of shade and drier conditions
