Aralia

Aralia (uh-RAY-lee-uh), commonly known as Spikenard, is a versatile and eye-catching shrub or small tree admired for its large, compound leaves and striking form. Available in both deciduous and evergreen, in bush or tree form, and even some indoor varieties, Aralia adds dramatic texture and verdant foliage to gardens, borders, and woodland settings. This multi-stemmed plant's leaves may be green, yellow, variegated, or deep purple, and will grow in dense clusters that create a bold statement in the landscape. In late summer to early fall, Aralia shrubs produce clusters of tiny, white to greenish flowers that attract pollinators, followed by small, dark berries that are a popular food source for your local birds. Thriving in partial shade to full shade and well-draining, fertile soil, Aralia is perfect for shady gardens where it adds vertical interest and audacious foliage. These hardy plants are relatively low-maintenance, making them ideal for gardeners seeking a unique and easy-care addition to their landscape.
