Leopard Plant Wavy Gravy
An interesting foliage plant for shade, Farfugium japonicum Wavy Gravy is a clump-forming, evergreen perennial with a rounded habit. The large, grey-green leaves are downy, and tightly curled, rather like a head of broccoli. In autumn, rather pretty yellow flowers appear, but many gardeners remove them, preferring it as a foliage plant, although they are long-lasting in a vase. Leopard plant Wavy Gravy is a naturally occurring sport of the leopard plant, and is good with hostas.
