    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Simply gorgeous with large yellow flowers, up to 2". The thick leaves are silvery mottled in spring. Best in moist but well draining, rich soil.

    By: Edelweiss Perennials

    Uncommon Toad Lily that is uncommonly hard to find as well as uncommonly beautiful. Bold broad leaves clasp sturdy stems which support big yellow flowers at their terminus. Less vigorous than its brethren it is nonetheless plenty stout of heart and a true jewel in the garden.

    The soft yellow 2" wide flowers are held closely to the stems and look as if from some tropical island. Growth usually under 1' tall.
