Description / Kirengeshoma palmata
Kirengeshoma palmate, commonly known as Yellow Waxed Bells, is highly sought after, being one of the more interesting and dramatic editions to the shade garden.
This herbaceous perennial is super hard to find, but luckily Wayside Gardens is here to help. This plant is a must-have for the woodland garden, offering huge, maple-like leaves and bright yellow blooms. A late bloomer, the bell-like flowers appear in midsummer to fall, dangling from erect, purple branches. The striking blooms are funnel-shaped, rarely open fully, and reach 1 to 2 inches long.
As fall creeps in, the blooms are replaced by large, 3-pronged seed capsules. Not to mention, the large leaves serve as the perfect backdrop through the seasons. There's no question as to why this interesting, shrub-like plant is so sought-after.
Reaching about 3 feet high and wide, it's the perfect size for a variety of landscaping needs. Its clumping habit pairs beautifully with other shade perennials, such as large hostas and tall ferns. Enjoying partial to full shade, give this plant plenty of water, and watch it thrive. You won't be disappointed with interesting summer blooms that light up the shadiest of areas. Zones 5-8.
