Fringe cups, Tellima grandiflora, forms semi-evergreen rosettes of hairy, scalloped leaves from which tall spikes of bell-shaped, green-white flowers, which become pink with age, appear from May to July. It's perfect for using as groundcover in a moist, shady shrub border or woodland garden, and works well with hostas and hardy ferns. It makes an excellent cut flower.
Grow Tellima grandiflora in moist but well-drained soil in partial shade. Shelter from cold, drying winds.
