Aralia cachemirica, commonly known as Kashmir Aralia, is a deciduous shrub or small tree with an attractive, exotic appearance. Its large, compound leaves are deeply lobed and serrated, giving the foliage a bold, architectural look. The leaves are a vibrant green, creating a lush, tropical effect in the landscape. In late summer, small, creamy white flowers appear in rounded clusters, followed by black berries that add interest to the plant as the season progresses. Kashmir Aralia thrives in partially shaded areas, providing a striking contrast to other plants in a woodland garden.
