Disporum cantoniense 'Night Heron'

Description

This rare and exceptional cultivar emerged from our wild seed collections in China. It exhibits lustrous deep red-burgundy foliage in spring before fading to greenish-purple in summer. Terminal clusters of creamy bell-shaped flowers appear atop stunning 6-foot stems in early summer, resulting in crops of glistening black-purple fruit. The overall appearance is of a handsomely striking, well-mannered bamboo. Shade to part shade in evenly moist soil.
