Rodgersia Braunlaub

A beautiful, architectural plant that takes a few years to establish and thrives in moist shade. Stunning, huge bronze leaves which have sharply serrated edges, these hold their colour through the early season becoming dark green by midsummer then colour up again in Autumn. The cream flushed, salmon flowers stand high above the foliage. It is an ideal specimen by itself or mixed with other large damp ground lovers.
