Fatsia japonica
Fatsia japonica, commonly known as Japanese Aralia, is an exotic-looking evergreen shrub valued for its bold, tropical foliage. Fatsia japonica features huge, deeply lobed, palmate leaves that can reach up to 16 inches wide, displaying a glossy dark green finish that adds dramatic texture to the landscape year-round.
A late bloomer, Japanese Aralia produces large clusters of creamy white flowers held in showy umbels during fall, followed by decorative black fruits that extend seasonal interest. Fatsia japonica maintains its best form and leaf color when grown in dappled sun with moist, well-drained soil. This striking evergreen shrub is ideal for shaded foundations, woodland gardens, and protected outdoor spaces where a lush, architectural plant is desired.
