Persicaria
Knotweed
Poor Persicaria! Certain weedy, invasive members of the genus have given the rest a bad name, and discouraged gardeners from getting to know these versatile performers. Our garden-worthy selections are happiest in semishade with ample moisture.
Raised by Chris Ghyselen, the Belgian who introduced ‘Fat Domino’, this long-flowering must-have Persicaria bears frisky tapers, parading dark-tipped unopened buds and deep dusky-red flowers. The full-toned blooms make a splendid spectacle above energetic flowing mounds of bold lance-shaped leaves that greet autumn with buttery-yellow hues.
Blooms August–October
Size: 3' 0" high x 3' 0" wide.
