Description
Fatsia japonica 'Variegata' is an evergreen shrub known for its large, glossy leaves which feature attractive creamy-white variegation. This plant adds a tropical feel to shaded garden corners or indoor spaces where indirect light is prevalent. It prefers sheltered sites, making it a popular choice for UK gardens where it can tolerate part shade to full shade conditions.
This variety typically grows at a moderate rate and can reach a height and spread of around 1.5 to 2 metres. It produces small, insignificant flowers, which are not the main feature but may attract pollinators. It's generally hardy in UK conditions but benefits from protection against harsh winter winds.
