Aspidistra daibuensis ‘Yuli Yummy’
Description:
Originating from the Yuli region of southern Taiwan, this distinctive selection was collected by Crûg Farm Plants in 1999 from shaded colonies growing in a dry valley habitat. Chosen for its unusually heavy white spotting and streaking, it represents one of the most striking forms found during the expedition. Its evergreen leaves provide year-round interest, while unusual creamy, star-shaped flowers with red-purple interiors appear at ground level in winter.
