Rohdea japonica Gyoku Ho Nishiki Ammocharis topped with a giant greenWe are pleased to add another collector's edition rohdea to our extensive offerings. Rohdea 'Gyoku Ho Nishiki', which means "jeweled phoenix brocade" (according to Barry Yinger, who knows these things), makes a small clump to only 3" tall x 8" wide. The dark green leaves are heavily pleated and ridged reminiscent of some mountains I drove through in China. The leaves are then carefully hand painted with streaks of white by master rohdea designers. In
