    One of the premier species in the genus with magnificent big leaves comprised of numerous broadly lanceolate leaflets radianting from a central axis and terminating in a fetching long drip tip. Brownish chocolate hooded flowers below the leaves are followed by red corncob fruit. From Taiwan.

    Extremely rare in commerce but we have a good supply from seeds collected by intrepid friends. The lizard-mottled stems bursts out of the woodland ground in April followed by dazzling, cobra-lily black flowers and mind-boggling, deeply cut, acid-flashback leaves. Stunning at 30-36" tall. For shade to dappled shade in rich soil with average of summer water. Frost hardy in the ground in upper USDA zone 6, possibly lower.
