Visitors to this page have left the following commentsJeanette Broekhuis | May 10, 2014 | The berries are indeed a spectacular autumn treat, but I grow this plant mostly for the gorgeous leaves. Each one is a work of art, and they hold up beautifully in arrangements and bouquets. The flowers are surpising (mine are light green)huge but so cloistered between the stems that they are hard to see. I was given a generous spadeful of rooted plant and it has taken a few years to become well established. |
