Golden Japanese Spikenard 'Sun King' 2 Gallon

Aralia cordata

This variety works as a unique golden-leafed plant for the shade. Color is brighter yellow in part sun, and more chartreuse or lime green in full shade. Tiny white flowers bloom in spring and summer, after which deep purple, inedible berries will develop. This plant grows best in part to light shade, but will also work in sunny spaces if given consistent moisture in well-drained soil. The variety dies back to the ground each winter and re-emerges each spring to form a shrub-like clump very quickly.
