Description

Large, round, simple leaves, the size and shape of a dinner-plate (or a tea-tray, in very moist soil), dimpled in the centre where they are attached to the stem. The leaf edges are slightly scalloped. One of the most beautiful and calming of leaves for a shady place. A strong flower stem carries heavy drooping clusters of star-shaped creamy-white flowers in late summer.
