Rodgersia ‘Dark Pokers’


Hybrid Rodgersia

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.454.420


With its bold, divided leaves this forms an exotic-looking clump that adds a unique foliage accent to any moist border. Large, airy, clusters of reddish pink flowers flowers appear in early to mid-summer. these are useful for cutting or even drying. Plants prefer a moist, dappled shade setting, but will grow in full sun at the waterside. Useful as a bold, architectural specimen plant. Clumps seldom need dividing, but this may be done in early spring. Divisions take a few years to settle back in. The foliage often takes on a bronze caste when first emerging in the spring.
