After years of yearning for this exceptional plant we finally got some stock in Japan at enormous cost, and now have enough to sell. This variegated form has a leaf that is half green and half white. The tip of the leaf is green, and part adjoining the stem white. The color is best in light shade with some morning sun and is better on larger plants. The name means "white tiger". This plant was once fairly common in Japan; I remember seeing fields of it in 1974 in Ikeda grown for the cut flower trade. It nearly disappeared from cultivation and now is making a slow but pricey comeback. USDA Zones 4-9.
3.5" pot.
