Ctenanthe ‘Compactstar’Ctenanthe ‘Compactstar’ has long oval leaves washed in silver-green and crossed by darker green feathering. Broad bands follow the side veins, leaving a pale central surface around the pronounced midrib.Purple-toned undersides add a second colour whenever the foliage lifts. Rolled new leaves stand upright and appear darker until their silver faces unfold. The broad finished blades become firm and gently arched, spreading their vein pattern across the full width.Shoots from the base fill the spaces between older foliage and create a dense compact clump. Large silver outer leaves give the plant its overall colour, while the active centre supplies deeper green rolls and repeated flashes of purple. Show more
