Cast Iron
Aspidistra elatior
Cast Iron Plant is a tough, evergreen perennial valued for its broad, dark green, glossy leaves and exceptional durability in challenging conditions. Thriving in shade to low light, it prefers well-drained soil and tolerates heat, drought, and neglect once established. With its slow growth, clean form, and low-maintenance nature, Cast Iron Plant is ideal for shaded borders, underplantings, containers, and landscape areas where few other plants thrive.
