Another excellent selection of the species from Darrell Probst. Impressive foliage, which is really important, because you have to live with it for a long time before
the flowers form! I got it from Plant Delights Nursery (they have very soft growth and don't travel particularly well), and their catalogue says: "This Darrell Probst selection of the Japanese Tricyrtis affinis has foliage so beautiful that it is not to be believed...believe me! Each of the silvery-chartreuse, velvet-textured leaves is bordered in dark green and then highlighted with dark green spots. The 3' tall, red-purple stalks are topped by small clusters of purple, star-shaped flowers in late summer. You will be amazed at this foliage...especially if you buy one." |
