ARALIA
This genus of hardy Asian and Asiatic small trees are grown for the
beauty of their long compound leaves which, on mature specimens,
can reach extraordinary long, luxurious lengths. Because of this they
appreciate a fairly sheltered site but are generally quite hardy and will
do well on any reasonably drained soil.
elata 5’ Huge, doubly pinnate leaves of 3’ or more in length, gathered
in an almost ruff-like arrangement near the tips of the stems. The early
Autumn sees this magnificent specimen crowned by large frothy
panicles of perfumed white flowers. Known as the Chinese Angelica
tree. Slow growing.
£18.95 (*)
 elata variegata 4-5’ An
exceptionally rare form with huge
foliage fronds, this time margined in
purest silver. A foliage specimen of
unequalled beauty, appreciates the
shelter of a wall or in tubs on the
patio, this and the following are very
rarely offered, rather slow growing,
but worth it! Deserving of a special
place.
£55.95 (*)
elata aureovariegata 4-5’ Huge leaf panicles irregularly margined
golden yellow.
