This native of Japan is a coarse, large-leafed, effective groundcover for shady sites with good moist to dry soil where it can be a fairly rapid spreader. This plant is uncommon and little-known in the U.S. and we originally acquired it through the courtesy of Mr. John Elsley of Greenwood, South Carolina.
