Podophyllum delavayi (veitchii) Hybrids
These Podophyllum delavayi hybrids could look just like this species when mature or turn into something unique.
Description:
Podophyllum delavayi is a Chinese mayapple. It is one of most exciting shade perennials. Fuzzy umbrellas emerge with dark snakeskin markings, often on a red background, changing to a patterned green. Mature leaves develop deep, notched serrations. These hybrid seedlings look like P. delavayi when young but will have genes from one of the following species also present in the garden where the seeds were collected: 'Red Panda', 'Spotty Dotty', P. delavayi, P. difforme, or P. versipelle. As adult plants they could become a real and unique treasure. Order multiple plants to create a dramatic and diverse colony!
