Petasites palmatus Golden Palms -

Not really a brand new plant but we are excited to once again offer this great plant. Nowhere near as thuggish as it's Petasites japonicus cousin, given a little space and planted wisely it will surely become one of your favorites. Early in spring, before the leaves come out strange flowers rise from the bare ground, looking like a small army of visitors from another planet. Not exactly showy, they are one of the first things in bloom and to put it kindly a great conversation piece. The real glory comes after the flowers, the glowing, golden yellow, maple-like leaves seem to be self-illuminated. While the color tends to fade to more of a chartreuse in summer it is still an excellent contrast for darker foliage. I have mine growing with Ligularia Britt-Marie Crawford! Loves moisture.

 Ht: 12-15"  Spc: 12-24".
