Veratrum viride - LIL127-01

Sorry this plant is not available at the moment. Please try again later or select an alternative plant.
 
Description:
Originating from the Pacific North West of North America, where we have seen remarkable colonies of this species high up on Mount Baker in Washington State. A truly fantastic robust species forming substantial clumps with sensationally pleated broad leaves to 40cm long and half that in width. With strong upright stems to 2.4m tall of branching drooping panicles of large green-tinted white to green flowers, each petal bearing a dark green V at its base, June-September. Easily grown in a humus enriched soil with adequate drainage in good light, that is not too hot. This species appears to prefer more moisture at the root than other species we grow.
