Tricyrtis 'Velvet Toad'
This unique Tricyrtis, wild-collected from Taiwan, stands out with its tall, erect stems that can reach up to 1m in height. The flowers feature broad outer petals that transition from deep red to pink, creating a rich, velvety appearance.
Thriving in light to full shade with humus-rich, well-drained soil, it’s an ideal plant for adding texture and colour to woodland gardens. For protection during harsh winters, a layer of mulch is recommended.
