We love the selection of bulbs available from A.D.R.  The variety is great, the quality is excellent and the price is fair.  However, the best part of working with A.D.R is the customer service from Chris, Walter and all of the team.  They go out of their way to make sure ours needs are met.

Ligularia stenocephala 'Britt-Marie Crawford' (Spring)

Ragwort

Ligularia ‘Britt‑Marie Crawford’ is prized for its dramatic foliage — large, glossy leaves that emerge deep purple and mature to a rich bronze‑plum, creating bold contrast in shaded borders. In midsummer, bright yellow daisy‑like flowers rise above the mound, adding a warm accent without diminishing the plant’s strong architectural presence. Its dense, rounded habit makes it ideal for moist woodland edges, shaded foundations, and areas where foliage impact matters as much as bloom. In part shade with consistently moist, well‑drained soil, it develops into a striking, premium perennial that brings depth, texture, and saturated color to the landscape.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Ligularia stenocephala 'Britt-Marie Crawford' (Spring)

Planting: Plant in spring or fall. Set crowns just below soil level and space 24 to 36 inches apart.
Location: Partial shade is ideal. Morning sun is fine, but protect from hot afternoon exposure to prevent wilting.
Soil: Moist, rich, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Thrives in boggy or consistently damp areas.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist. In dry spells or full sun, leaves may wilt—regular watering is essential.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 4–8. Cold-tolerant and long-lived once established.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a balanced fertilizer in early spring. Avoid high-nitrogen formulas that encourage floppy growth.
Pruning: Deadhead spent flower spikes to encourage tidiness. Remove yellowing leaves as needed. Cut back to the ground in late fall or early spring.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 3 to 5 years in spring to rejuvenate and multiply.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free, though slugs and snails may nibble on the large leaves.
