Description
Rodgersia is a striking perennial with emerald green foliage tinged with copper and airy white flower plumes that bloom from late spring to mid-summer. This shade-loving plant is perfect for moist, well-drained soil and performs beautifully in Massachusetts gardens. The foliage emerges a soft khaki tone and matures into a bold green, accented by bronze highlights that intensify with sun exposure.
Whether used as a vertical accent or part of a mass planting, Rodgersia adds texture and contrast to woodland settings or bog gardens. Its foliage provides a perfect foil for finer-leaved plants, and its creamy-white flower clusters are excellent for cutting. With low maintenance needs and strong deer resistance, Rodgersia is a reliable choice for gardeners across Massachusetts looking to add structure and elegance to shaded spaces.
