Ligularia, The Rocket

Ligularia 'The Rocket'

Dramatic foliage and flowers combine to make an elegant statement in the moist shade garden. Huge, triangular, light green leaves with coarsely toothed edges can be up to 1 foot tall and wide! In July, 18-24" tall spikes of lemon yellow flowers on dark purple stems blast off above the foliage. This plant may wilt on hot days, even if moist, but recovers as it cools down.
