Years after its 1996 introduction from Terra Nova, Tricyrtis 'Golden Gleam' is still one of our favorite toad lilies...even if it never flowered. This dwarf only reaches 18", boasting chartreuse golden foliage spotted with large grey dots, that looks great all summer in the woodland garden when used among textural contrasts like ferns and carex. In fall, each leaf axil is tightly packed with 1" wide dark purple and white-speckled flowers...a great collectors' plant for the woodland rock garden.
