Our PNW native Fringe cups Tellima grandiflora are a wonderful group of
plants but I recently bought the variety 'Forest Frost'. Beautiful
evergreen foliage (silver veined with hints of burgundy in winter) much
like some of the new heucheras being introduced. This can take full sun or
partial shade in the Pacific Northwest, but in hotter areas partial shade
with morning sun would probably be its best bet. It will creep around some
and bloom its pretty little cups off in early summer. :) If this is
anything like our native fringe cups it should have a fragrance to it. Just
thought I would share this pretty little plant with all of you. Oh and it's
hardy to zone 5.
