Shade Grade: B
Doing well despite the dry soil conditions where I planted it. Would likely be more vigorous in a better spot.
Variegated Japanese Aralia
This pretty fatsia japonica will hopefully get as giant as promised. I’m banking on the 5-8′ feet (as shown in the nursery tag) to fill up the bare mulched area beneath our giant Blue Atlas Cedar. I water it quite a bit during summer to try and help it along. So far it’s about 2′ x 2′ after a 1 year.
