Can anyone tell me the name of the plant with the red varigated looking leaves at the front of the picture. I know one plant is geranium, it is the other plant I am trying to I.D.
Thanks, PatriciaClick the image for an enlarged view.

It sure is pretty whatever it is. I was thinking maybe some type of Iresine: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/215161/ but that is just a wild guess! jerodsmom Livermore, CA (Zone 9a)November 06, 2009 08:17 PM

You may be right, that sounds familiar. Let's see if anyone can give a postive I.D. plantladylin East Central, FL (Zone 9b)November 06, 2009 08:21 PM

I wasn't sure but just googled for photo's of Iresine: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&source=hp&q=images of ...
Hopefully if it is indeed Iresine, someone will be able to tell you which cultivar it is. themoonhowl Prairieville, LA (Zone 9a)November 07, 2009 11:43 AM

Possibly Iresene 'Blazing Rose'. A new cultivar this past year

You got it right, I didn't think the leaves were quite right on the first once because my leaves don't cup down. Thank you so much. themoonhowl Prairieville, LA (Zone 9a)November 07, 2009 02:30 PM
