Fatsia japonica (Japanese Aralia)

Broadleaf evergreen shrub with large, hand-shaped leaves that lend a lush, tropical look to shaded gardens and containers. Produces rounded clusters of small white flowers in late season, followed by dark berries. Prefers partial to full shade, shelter from harsh winds, and moist, well-drained soil, often thriving in protected courtyards and woodland settings.
