Deciduous. August-September flowering. A great foliage plant that quickly forms a handsome mound of large, golden-green (or lime-coloured in shadier spots) leaves, which are held on rich mahogany stems. Tall flower spikes are smothered in rounded clusters of tiny white flowers, and later rounded black fruit. Will grow in sun or shade in most soils. 1.2 x 1.2m (4' x 4')
