    Shredded Umbrella plant. This woodland Ligularia relative, native to dry hillsides, emerges in early spring as the white woolly leaves push through the ground like mayapples. Exquisite foliage all summer.

    This intriguing aster relative emerges from the ground like a fuzzy mushroom crossed with a rocket ship then it opens into a multi-spoked wheel of leaflets or like an umbrella after one of BC's winter windstorms! Grown for its mounds of intriguing foliage, this species is flexible for a variety of conditions including dry shade! Insignificant whitish flowers in summer.

    Tattered Umbrella. Beats the botanical name. A grand foliage plant with silken gray cones of new growth pushing from the earth in spring like improbable fungi and expanding to rounded leaves so deeply incised as to appear shredded. Way cool which is good as the flowers are nicht so gut.
