CloseThis Bear's breech is a shade must-have. You'll enjoy the glossy variegated white and green foliage year round, and in the summer, amazing cream and pink blooms emerge well above the foliage. Use Acanthus 'Whitewater' in your shade garden for a bold focal point. As is true with most acanthus, 'Whitewater' can be a vigorous spreader, so a large planter may be more appropriate for some gardens.
