Tractor Seat Plant 180MM

Ligularia reniformis

I am Tractor Seat Plant. My family originated from Japan.

Habit Strappy - Suits Indoors or Outdoors

Plant family Asteraceae

I am a lush looking clumping plant with large rounded 'tractor seat' shaped leaves. My blooms are bright yelllow and daisy like from late summer into autumn. I thrive in moist well drained soils, but also tolerate poor soils. I am ideal as an indoor plant. Planted out in the garden I do best in a sheltered location, but enjoy full sun to part shade. I am great at creating an impact indoors and in tropical and 'Lush" style gardens.

I am popular and will make you happy because...
