Family: Melanthiaceae
Zone: 5 - 9
Natural Range: Hybrid
Soil: Moist, humus rich
Light: Part shade
Attributes: Deciduous. Paris polyphylla 'Heronswood Form' grows to 36"-40" tall has golden petals. This form clumps up better than most other forms. Paris sp. grows to more than 6' tall and never sends any additional offsets. When pollinated the pods crack open revealing bright orange fruit.
Notes: We have been crossing these two unique varieties both directions and have resulted in several years of good seedling crops. These plants have not flowered yet and I imagine that it will still be a couple of years before flowering. I am hoping that the offspring will result in a taller plant that offsets more readily.

Natural Range: Himalayas; North India, China
Soil: Moist, humus rich
Light: Shade, part sun
Attributes: Deciduous, 1' - 2' tall. Unusual whorled leaves surrounding flowers. Blooms consist of up to 8 green sepals with long yellow thread like petals and a round purple ovary. In the fall a polinated flower will burst open revealing orange seeds. Rhizomes are very similar to Trillium.
Notes: The Genus Paris are Asiatic cousins of Trilliums, called the honey - flower family. Only five species of Trillium are found in Asia while more than 20 species of Paris are found there. Paris have a combination of whorled foliage and whorled sepals that create textural interest, making them look unusual in contrast to their more familiar cousins. Paris look especially unique when planted in combination with Cardiocrinum, Podophyllum and Arisaema

Notes: Excellent form with mottled foliage and good growth habit. It has been a while since this strain has been available. Plant with other Podophyllum for textural effect and contrast. If planted on a mound or slight incline the flower show off best. I have found for all Podophyllum that they grow best when planted in deep rich fertile soil with lots of organic material. I use a good layer of fertile mulch with dark bark chips along with manure and compost. P. difforme perform best when in dappled shade.
