Kirengeshoma palmata is a one-of-a-kind perennial shrub, notable for its sculptural, maple-like leaves and the charming bell-shaped buttery yellow flowers that have earned it the common name, Yellow Wax Bells. Originally hailing from the woodland and mountainous regions of Japan and Korea, it's generously adapted to partial to full shade and has a love for moist, well-drained soil. A star in its own right, this resilient and attractive shrub delivers an enchanting burst of colour from late summer to autumn, just when most garden peers begin to fade. With a moderate height and spread reaching up to 3 feet, it's an impactful, yet manageable presence in your garden; an ideal addition to tranquil woodland gardens or as a focal point in border plantings.
