This rare Japanese endemic hails from the moist cliffs of the Nanuki River on Japan's Kyushu Island. T. perfoliata is one of several weeping toad lily species, but is the only one that has upfacing open flowers (like T. flava) instead of the bell-like flowers of T. ishiana and T. macrantha. The 2-3' long arching stem passes through the ends (perfoliate) of the glossy green leaves. The stems are then laden with a stunning show of 1.5" wide axillary yellow flowers in late summer/early fall...truly stunning. This is not a great specimen for regions with hot, dry summers. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
