Notes
'Wavy Gravy' leopard plant (Farfugium japonicum 'Wavy Gravy') is a perennial for borders, shade gardens, and woodland settings. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to wet soil. It forms a clumping mound about 21 to 24 inches tall and 18 to 21 inches wide. It blooms in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Woodland phlox, White bigleaf hydrangea, and Mondo grass.
