Victory Plantain Lily is a hardy perennial, the backbone of the shade garden, grown for bold sculptural foliage. Victory Plantain Lily flowers in summer in shades of lilac, and performs best in part shade with moderate watering once established. This perennial matures to roughly 1-3 feet tall and 1.5-4 feet wide. It is ideal for mixed beds, butterfly gardens, and filling space between shrubs, offering dependable colour that returns every year. Easy to establish and simple to maintain, Victory Plantain Lily rewards basic care with a reliable display season after season. A layer of mulch helps hold moisture and keeps roots cool in summer.
