This extremely rare specimen is an absolutely magnificent plant for the back of the border, and we had never previously heard of this plant or family! Tall, strong, fabulous, arching, cane-like stems sprout large, pendulous, terminal sprays of creamy-yellow-green flowers, and are clad in palmate leaves resembling the famous drug! When dried the flowers and stems make gorgeous winter displays. Bone hardy, non-invasive and perhaps the tallest herbaceous perennial you can grow, this is yet another reliable "baffle-the-expert" plant.
