Rohdea japonica 
Lily of China, Sacred Lily

This rare and highly-prized, tropical-looking, oriental native provides the appearance of an evergreen hosta. The 1' long x 2" wide, thick, dark green leaves form an upright vase-shaped clump to 2' wide in 10 years. Late in the season, the insignificant flowers produce short stalks of red berries that persist through the winter at the base of the plant. When used en masse, Rohdeas are a dynamite evergreen addition to the deep shade garden for a presence even in winter.
