Foliage for House or Conservatory

Not many plants flower all year round so it is worth considering that colour can come from foliage as much as flowers and will last a lot longer. Along side plants with varying shades of green leaves there are many which have colourful variegated, purple, red, blue, yellow and a myriad of shades in between.
