Aralia cordata - Sun King

A radiant shade lover, Aralia cordata โ€˜Sun Kingโ€™ dazzles with its golden-yellow, finely divided compound foliage that brightens woodland gardens. Mature clumps reach about 76โ€“122โ€ฏcm (30โ€“48โ€ณ) tall and equally wide, presenting an architectural mound of bold texture. In late summer, delicate white flower spikes emerge, followed by deep purplish-black berries that attract birds. This easy-care perennial thrives in part sun to shade and offers year-after-year ornamental and ecological appeal.
