Japanese Toad Lily (season: Winter)
Botanical Name: Tricyrtis hirta
A shade lover with interesting arched foliage and small orchid-like flowers. Both foliage and flowers are an attractive addition to bouquets.
The small blooms will attract pollinators and last for 1-2 months. It is a hardy perennial that dies back if exposed to frost and will re-emerge in Spring. The arching stems have a graceful flowing appearance. This plant is not known to overtake the garden as it has a clumping habit.
| How To Grow | The Japanese Toad Lily prefers moisture-rich soils in shady positions. It is an ideal choice for under trees or shady garden borders. Protect from frost for a longer flowering season. Suitable for pots. Height: 40cm Plant: 5-10cm deep, 30cm apart in semi-shade |
