Fatsia japonica

• Large, glossy, deeply lobed evergreen leaves
• Architectural shrub ideal for shaded gardens
• Produces creamy white flowers in autumn
• Hardy and easy to grow with minimal maintenance

Fatsia japonica is a bold and architectural evergreen shrub, valued for its large, glossy, palm shaped leaves that bring structure and texture to the garden all year round. Its striking foliage creates a strong visual impact and works particularly well in shaded borders, woodland gardens and courtyard planting schemes.

 

In autumn, mature plants produce rounded clusters of creamy white flowers, followed by small black berries that add seasonal interest. Fatsia japonica thrives in partial shade and sheltered positions with moist but well drained soil. Highly tolerant and easy to care for, it is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add dramatic foliage and year round interest with minimal effort.
