DESCRIPTION
Podophyllum pleianthum is a perennial native to China, valued for its unique foliage and ornamental qualities. The plant features large, webbed, duck-foot-shaped leaves that are smooth-edged and glossy green, adding a bold and textured element to shaded woodland gardens. These leaves stand out for their distinctive shape and provide a striking visual contrast throughout the growing season. The plant thrives in partial to full shade and prefers rich, well-drained soil.
In late spring to early summer, Podophyllum pleianthum produces deep maroon to purple, bell-shaped flowers that dangle beneath the foliage. These flowers are somewhat hidden by the large leaves, offering a pleasant surprise for garden visitors. After flowering, the plant produces small, fleshy fruit that transitions from green to red as it matures, adding ornamental value. This perennial is ideal for shaded borders, woodland gardens.
