Tricyrtis ‘Shirohotogisu’
Plant number: 1.522.120
Toad-lilies are rather bizarre, but rewarding plants for late-season display in the shady garden. This midsized selection features pure white petals, without the usual spotting, with soft lavender stamens. 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. Plants are easily divided in early spring.
