Other: The Fringecup is a US native named for its flowers, whose petals are very fringed. The flowers start out greenish white and mature to almost purple. The blooms appear on stalks above fuzzy heart-shaped leaves. The foliage of the Fringecup is similar to the foliage of Coral Bells. Fringecup’s large leaves can measure up to 4 inches wide, and are evergreen in warmer climates. It makes an excellent ornamental ground cover for moist woodland areas or stream banks. They also grow well in containers.

Arrived quickly, in good shape. Planting instructions are brief, but succinct, easy to follow. I was very happy to find some beautiful full-shade blossoming plants! I’ll be planting them in a couple more weeks to winter over, and we’ll see what comes up in the Spring!
