Aspidistra fasciaria 'Ginga Giant'

Pot Size: 1 litre
Price: £20.00
Description:
A distinct clone of whatever species it is, has been growing at our nursery for many years, as it was given to us by the late Stephen Taffler, a variegated plant collector. Similar to the cultivar ‘Ginga’, but larger as its name implies, to approximately 1 m tall. Bearing green ovate-lanceolate leaves to 10 cm wide, spotted and occasionally streaked white, held on long sturdy petioles, which can be as long as the lamina in well grown mature plants. Growing from a sturdy rhizome, which is best grown at or just below the surface of the compost, as the purple flowers are borne directly from the rhizome. Syn. A. lurida & A. elatior.
