Ligularia dentata 'Othello' is a bold, dramatic perennial prized for its oversized deep green leaves with rich purple undersides and striking golden-orange daisy-like flowers that bloom in midsummer. The large, rounded foliage creates a lush tropical look in shaded gardens, while the vibrant blooms rise above the foliage on tall stems and attract butterflies and pollinators.
Thriving in part shade to full shade, ‘Othello’ prefers consistently moist, rich soil and performs especially well near ponds, woodland gardens, or shaded borders. This eye-catching perennial grows approximately 3–4 feet tall and wide, adding texture, color contrast, and architectural interest to the landscape. Hardy in USDA Zones 4–8.
