Title: Unknown from Japan
Post by: Wim Snoeijer on September 02, 2018, 08:39:41 AM

Good morning All,

A friend of mine collected some seeds in the wild in Japan a few years ago. I was able to raise a few plants, now in full flower up to 1.5 - 2 meter tall. Tiny white flowers with the petals fused. The very young seeds are winged and the rosettes at the bottom have leaves up to 0.5 m long.
Any suggestion? Many thanks.

Hi Wim, this is Patrinia villosa. A real beauty!
