Great plant, Phillip. I spent ten minutes trying to figure out why the genus Aralia sounds so familiar to me, but I can't. Do you know if it's hardy to Zone 5?
That really lights up a shady spot! Wonderful. The three leaf textures in the foreground, so simple and elegant. It is interesting that while that lovely plant is not appropriate to my climate, we have a golden Duranta that provides the same effect.
Phillip, this is beautiful a beautiful aralia. I love the color! I must do some research to see what growing conditions it likes, but I suspect if it will grow for you, it will grow for me too!
A gorgeous color and form for the garden.
ReplyDeleteI bought one of these in May, and have yet to figure out where to put it, but I had to have it.

ReplyDeleteSome sources say zone 3, most say zone 4. So it should work for you!
DeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to grow native Aralia racemosa this year for the 1st time.
So far, it's been a steady if not spectacular performer, but I have a feeling it's just settling in for the long haul...
(At least, I hope so!) :)
I just planted some a few weeks ago and they still have a way to go before reaching that size, thanks for the timely inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I really love these. Ya gotta love a bright plant for shade. :o)
