Thanks for your comments, quiltjean. Painters Palette actually does better in semi-shade than in full sun. The leaf colors are more pronounced. Red Dragon does well under the same conditions. All the rest of the Persicarias that I mentioned do best in sun, but will tolerate some shade. Which Persicaria were you referring to?
Gee, I guess standard persicaria polymorpha, with white flowers, about 4 feet high. I'm new to this and only learned its name from my son, who has a huge plant in his yard in VT.
Sorry to be so late.
Partial shade. My condo needs plantings, and I think this would fit nicely in one bed that gets some sun. It sure doesn't seem too particular! Right now it's squeezed into a foot square (surface).
