Agapetes are evergreen shrubs related to blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) but with larger and showier flowers. This is an epiphytic evergreen shrub with small rounded, glossy and deep green leaves arranged along long arching stems. Deep yellow, urn‑shaped flowers hang in clusters from late winter through mid‑spring. Requires excellent drainage and makes a great display in a moss‑lined hanging basket. This variety occurs in the eastern Himalaya to the west of var. major which is the variety we normally offer. It differs from var. major in its more bullate foliage and slightly smaller flowers.

A seldom-grown relative of the familiar Bog Rosemary – Andromeda polifolia. This species is similar but with glaucous, broadly elliptic foliage on a dense, mat forming, very dwarf and slowly spreading, evergreen groundcover only a few inches in height. Pink pitcher-shaped flowers in clusters at the ends of the shoots in mid-spring. Best in a moist soil in full sun. Native to bogs, lakeshores and other moist areas from Greenland south to the northern USA (east of the Mississippi).   

This is a widespread and variable species of Jack-in-the-Pulpit, native to much of eastern Asia including Russia, China and Korea. It features green flowers, typically striped with white or purple. A very hardy and easily grown species. This is our first offering of this excellent woodland wildflower. Blooming size plants.

A large and bold perennial arising from an underground tuberous rhizome in late spring. This is a magnificent plant in the landscape, with a large whorl of 10 to 20 leaflets atop a tall stem up to four feet in height. The leaves are dark green and sometimes marked with silver. The amazing flowers are the typical spathe and spadix which distinguishes this family of plants. In this particular species, the spathe is greenish with a long and narrow pendulous tip. The protruding, knob‑like spadix is also green. Blooms in mid‑ to late summer. Plant the tubers two or three inches down (deeper in colder climates) in a moist and organic soil with good drainage. A stunning accent in the woodland garden or as a companion to rhododendrons. Spectacular tropical effect once established, especially when planted in groups. Native to China where it occurs in a wide variety of habitats.

This woodland perennial “Jack‑in‑the‑Pulpit” has to be seen to be believed. The deep purple glossy “hood” of the spathe surrounds the pure glistening white of the club‑like spadix – a striking color combination. The plant rises to around one or two feet in height in early spring from an underground, tuber‑like structure. In addition to the “out of this world” flowers, the foliage is often marked with silver streaking. Best in woodland conditions and soil (similar culture to trilliums, hostas, etc.).
