Heritage Perennial Profile Here's the complete description for this Heritage Perennial. Drop in any time to see the rest of our collection.  Plant Number: 1.454.400 USDA Zone: 3 - 9  Rodgersia aesculifolia Common name :  Rodgersia Also called Chestnut-leaved Rodgersia, this forms an exotic-looking clump of bold green foliage, supporting an airy plume of creamy-white flowers in mid-summer. These prefer a moist, dappled shade setting, but will grow in full sun at the waterside. Useful as a bold, architectural specimen plant. Flowers are good for cutting or drying. Clumps seldom need dividing, but this may be done in early spring. Divisions take a few years to settle back in.
