Persicaria amplex. 'Dark Red'
A striking, long-flowering perennial that produces slender, upright spikes of deep, velvety red blooms from midsummer through to autumn. The rich flower colour brings depth and contrast to borders, especially when paired with grasses or lighter-toned perennials.
Its broad green foliage forms a dense, clump-forming base that helps suppress weeds and adds strong structure. Unlike some Persicarias, ‘Dark Red’ is well-behaved and non-invasive, making it suitable for both formal and naturalistic schemes.
Thrives in sun or part shade, and is tolerant of heavy or damp soils — an easy, reliable performer with great seasonal value.
