    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Ligularia dentata ‘Britt-Marie Crawford’ forms lush mounds 30 inches high and wide with the deepest burgundy-black leaves and deep yellow daisy-like flowers in summer. An exciting perennial for the moist shade garden. If you love burgundy foliage but dislike bright yellow follow the advice of garden writer Marjorie Harris and snip off the flower stems before they open! Loves average to moist soils and even wet soils. Tolerant of part sun if planted in a wet location. Foliage colour will be darker in more light.

    Tropical looking bold plants forming clumps of glossy chocolate brown foliage all season. Clusters of orange-yellow daisies on 3' stems appear in mid summer. Ligularias love moisture and are especially effective when planted along a stream.

    Saucer leaves of such a glossy black you can almost see a reflection in them make this the darkest Ligularia yet!; the 18"mound of foliage is topped (in late summer) by striking golden daisies on 3-4' stems. PSh/Med PPatentAF PV

    Big, Black and Beautiful. Great black purple maroon foliage and large yellow daisy flowers makes this a great new introduction. Loves a moist rich soil where it can really beef up the size of its leaves. It's true. Once you had black, you'll never go back. PP16113
