Pot Size: 3 litre Price: £15.00 Description: One of the most dramatic of the genus certainly made a statement where we collected the seed, in the far north of Honshu, Japan in the autumn of 2005. Where they formed huge plants with a meter plus wide leaves which were about to disappear in a yellow blaze for the winter as the snows were already threatening. Arising from a strong fleshy rhizomatous root with upright petioles/stems to 1.3m tall bearing the five-foliate serrated leaves which can be red on emerging. The large panicles of creamy-white flowers are reliably borne in summer above the leaves, something that is unusual in this species. Easily grown in sun or shade with adequate moisture at the root.
