This sensational architectural masterpiece introduces a sublime, painterly romance to shady retreats with its exquisitely formed, medium-sized mound of fluid foliage. A highly coveted artistic triumph from hybridizer Mike Vasey, each leaf emerges as a brilliant, luminous illumination of bright lime-green before gracefully mellowing into a refreshing, smooth light emerald-green as the summer heat approaches. The true visual grace of this specimen lies hidden beneath its heavy-substanced blades, where deep, dramatic purple petioles support each leaf and beautifully bleed dark plum pigment upward into the leaf bases. Possessing incredible physical structure and rich color contrast, this magnificent accent stands out as a breathtaking structural highlight for discerning collectors.

Incorporate this premium specimen into layered shade gardens, where it pairs flawlessly with delicate, shade-loving ferns, dense architectural sedges, or the colorful plumes of dramatic astilbes to build rich textural layers.

Info: Our plants are grown in 5.25 x 5.25 x 5.25 inch pots and develop large root systems. These are not a small liner but a plant you can put right into your garden. That means you will get a bigger plant right away compared to a starter plant. We guarantee you will get a true to type healthy plant that you will love for years. If you have any problems or questions we are happy to help. During early spring plants may still be breaking dormancy so they may appear smaller than they will be when they fully leaf out. In Fall or Winter the plants may be dormant which means the may be losing or have completely lost their leaves.

Shipping: We do not ship to Hawaii or Alaska due to cost and import restrictions. Plants will be removed from their pots and loose soil removed and the rootball placed in a bag. We are an inspected nursery from the VA Dept of AG
