Podophyllum (Spotty Dotty)
Alien Leaves
With species native to North America through to Asia, plants in the Podophyllum genus vary in colour and form, but they’re renowned for their dramatic, leathery foliage and Red flowers, which are pollinated by flies. Most species grow best in moist shade, where their dramatic foliage can be enjoyed along with other foliage plants including hostas, heucheras and tiarellas. ‘Spotty Dotty’ is a hybrid podophyllum, related to the North American species Podophyllum peltatum. It bears upright stems in spring, from which huge, lobed umbrella-shaped leaves with large chocolate-brown spots appear. Mature plants bear red flowers and fleshy fruits. For best results, grow Podophyllum ‘Spotty Dotty’ in rich, moist soil, in partial to full shade.
