These have been in cultivation for 250 or so years, derived as leaf sports of P. inquinans. The flowers are often smaller than those of other groups and are usually single, but the leaves are the major ornamental feature.They are used as bedding or pot plants. For ease of identification, this group is sometimes split into subgroups - silver, silver tricolour, gold, gold tricolour, bronze, black and butterfly (with an irregular butterfly-shaped zone of a different colour in the centre).
