are displayed in October and November. Its leaves are 3-4"
long and almost as wide giving the plant a fairly coarse texture.
This large plant should be given plenty of space. Used in the landscape
as a specimen or in naturalized areas.

partial shade. Tolerates heavy shade but plant will be more open
and fall color is less intense.
