Mukdenia rossii ‘Karasuba’
Mukdenia rossii ‘Karasuba’
Plant number: 1.367.150A distant cousin to Coral Bells, this is a woodland treasure native to China. It forms a low mound of large, bold maple-shaped leaves, bronze-green in spring, later becoming deep green with stunning crimson tips. Small white bell-shaped flowers appear in spring before the leaves. Must have an evenly moist, rich woodland soil. Deciduous in winter. Clumps slowly spread to form a small patch, which may be divided carefully in the spring every 4 years or so. Combines beautifully with Hakonechloa, the Japanese Woodland Grass. Ideal for edging, and also gorgeous in containers. May prove to be hardy to Zone 3 or colder. Apparently ‘Karasuba’ is the original and therefore correct Japanese cultivar name, but this plant is often sold as ‘Crimson Fans'. Further details for |
