Carnival Watermelon Alumroot is one of ten Carnival Alumroot cultivars with diverse foliage colors, uniform size and good heat tolerance. It matures to a neat 12 inch by 14 inch mounded shape. Carnival Watermelon Alumroot was selected for its wonderful shades of peach, pink and green foliage. Undersides of the leaves contrast with a bright pink. Although primarily grown for its decorative foliage, a spike of delicate creamy white flowers appears in early to mid summer, increasing the height to 18 inches and adding interest. The Carnival Series was introduced by Darwin Plants, the official trade name of a Dutch company, Witteman and Co, founded in 1865. The color is best when grown in partial shade. It works well as a color accent in containers or borders and mass planted in partial shade as a groundcover. Patented in 2014.
