This superb selection of Aspidistra elatior forms a commanding clump in the garden with its 3' tall x 5" wide glossy dark green leaves. Each leaf is composed of an 18" stalk topped with an 18" blade, which is highlighted with narrow central creamy yellow streaks and a very narrow white border at the tip. According to our friend Barry Yinger, the 'Fuji No Mine' means "crags on Mt. Fuji"...we'll take his word. This has been a great performer in our garden trials. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
