Description

A true statement plant, perfect for a boggy, hard-to-fill spot. The enormous, umbrella-like leaves have the curious texture of sandpaper and are held up by thick, bristly stems. Native to Chile and Argentina this legendary perennial brings a splash of the tropics to temperate gardens, with each leaf reaching up to 2.5 metres across!
