$12.60The Story
Stunning as are all Gunneras, this version of "dinosaur food" has sharply lobed and wrinkled leaves with endearing little bumps. The rhubarb-like leaves can reach over 8 ft in height and width and are also tinted with purple -- always a good thing! The flowers appear as 2 ft ...ummm...blobs that look like they have been dipped in orange bird seed. So much for botanical descriptions. Best if used in a boggy situation where water is always present, especially in summer. With afternoon shade anywhere but at the coast. Can also be used in normal garden conditions but does not attain the great size. Often survives but not shiningly in high summer heat and humidity. USDA zone 8.
