Recently I stumbled across a plant recipe called ‘This is the Life.’ Not only was it a collection of some of my favorite plants, but was like a wake-up call to an old favorite, the Persian Shield. Known botanically as Strobilanthes dyerianus, it is native to Myanmar and has 8-inchlong leaves that are iridescent in shades of purple, lilac and pink with purplemaroon on the undersides. If those colors aren’t awesome enough, the foliage looks as though it has a light coat of silver electroplated to the leaf.
