Yes indeed Paris is a plant! Heronswood had fine descriptions, but I checked
further and came up with several additional links. One I might add, listed under
"yunnanensis" of a lovely long brownish snake!
Most interesting plant from China so why the name "Paris"? Because the fellow who
discovered it, was from France!
I'd like to ask Nancy, Did you purchase the plant locally or from a specialty
nursery? I think it would look marvelous in my woodland garden. It reminds me of
our local "Mayapple" plants.
Here are beautiful pictures of the Paris.
