Gunnera manicata

Native to the high mountain swamps of Brazil and Colombia, also known as Giant Rhubarb, is an extraordinary plant renowned for its impressive size.

Thriving in boggy, waterlogged soils it is commonly grown along the margins of ponds or water features. In spring, the plant’s massive leaves unfurl rapidly, reaching widths of up to 2.4 meters creating a dramatic focal point in the garden.

During summer, long greenish-red flower spikes emerge adding further interest. Hardy and resilient, ideal for creating bold, tropical-style landscapes.
