Tricyrtis 'Empress' (Empress Toad Lily) - Large terminal flowers of white and spotted dark purple sit atop glossy green leaves in late summer to early fall, usually one of the last perennials to bloom. Ideally suited in morning sun to afternoon shade in a rich, acidic soil, ample mulch and even moisture. Tricyrtis do not tolerate dry conditions for a prolonged period, if so the fleshy rhizomes quickly resprout when watered thoroughly.
The information about Tricyrtis 'Empress' that is displayed on this web page is based on research conducted in our nursery's horticultural library and from reliable online resources.
