About

Podophyllum delavayi, the Chinese mayapple, is a herbaceous perennial plant in the family Berberidaceae native to South-Central China. It is highly sought after by plant collectors and avid shade gardeners. It is distinguished by its lobed, peltate foliage that is remarkably mottled when it first emerges in early spring. Deep red flowers appear in May and are somewhat foul-scented to attract its pollinators.
