Rosey Edges

Just like the cold brings out rosy cheeks, it seems to bring out the pink around the edges of the leaves on this lovely ligularia (click on the photo for a closer look). Although our days have been very warm, the nights are still chilly and it seems to color up some plants like this.

I like that about wintertime when certain leaves take on different hues. My Geraniums which have quite dull leaves in summer really come to life in winter with the zones very pronounced and some take on a lovely rosy hue like you described it. I thought first your plant was a Geranium.
