It Produces Creamy Yellow Flowers In Summer, That Are Often Followed By Yellowish-Green Fruit. These Are Not Tasty Enough To Eat, However The Plants Look Brilliant When Incorporated Into A Jungle-Style Planting Scheme, And Can Be Potted Up Into Large Pots And Treated As A Dynamic Feature. Garden Care: Though The Root Is Fairly Hardy, You Should Apply A Thick Layer Of Mulch To Protect The Crown In Autumn And Protect The Foliage With A Blanket Of Fleece Or Straw. In Colder Areas, Or Where The Soil Remains Heavy In Winter, They Are Best Grown In Pots, So They Can Be Over-Wintered Under Glass.
