Redvein dock
Rumex sanguineus
Redvein dock is a hardy perennial grown mainly for its striking red-veined foliage, thriving in partially shaded garden beds with consistently moist soil. Plant in a spot sheltered from harsh afternoon sun and water regularly to prevent wilting. It requires minimal feeding and will spread gently over time, making it an easy low-maintenance ground accent.
