Rohdea japonica (Sacred Lily)

Light Shade to ShadeZone: 6-10 12" tall Origin: Japan

This rare and highly-prized, tropical-looking, oriental native provides the appearance of an evergreen hosta. The 1' long x 2" wide, thick, dark green leaves form an upright vase-shaped clump to 2' wide in 10 years. Late in the season, the insignificant flowers produce short stalks of red berries at the base of the plant. When used in mass, rohdeas are a dynamite evergreen addition to the deep shade garden for a presence even in winter. We have masses of these growing at the base of giant black walnut trees...can you say tough? Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
