Tricyrtis ‘Empress’
Plant number: 1.522.130
Toad-lilies are rather bizarre, but rewarding plants for late-season display in the shady garden. This selection forms an attractive mound of green leaves. Starfish-like flowers appear in late summer, white with rich wine-purple spotting. Deserves a spot where it can be seen up close. Excellent as a cut flower. Toad-lilies are among the last perennials to bloom, so they give gardeners something fresh and exciting to end the season. This particular form flowers earlier than most, so it's a good choice for regions with a short growing season. Plants are easily divided in early spring.
