Nursery contributed plant descriptions

One of the most ornate among the woodland composites, this summer growing, reasonably spreading perennial has symmetrically arranged leaves atop 18" stalks looking as if they were cut into doilies. Grown more for for its handsome foliage than its flower and makes a nice knitter among other woodland creatures. Sun to part shade with protection from hot afternoon sun and consistent moisture. Frost hardy USDA zone 6 or below.
A hybrid between two fab foliage species, Syneilesis palmata and S. aconitifolia. We have Diana Reeck of Collector's Nursery to thank for these goodies. Silken silver conical new growth unfurling to deeply dissected round leaves - nothing like it! Flowers are an afterthought.
