Kerria japonica ‘Picta’                                      Variegated Japanese Kerria

 Size:  6’ X Slow Spreading

 Exposure:  Full sun to Shade (Best with at least some Shade)

 Flower Time:  May, sporadically until frost

 Ornamental Characteristics:

 Take all that was said about Golden Guinea with the following changes.  The foliage of Picta has an irregular white edge surrounding a green center.  This variegation holds up wonderfully throughout the growing season with little to no burn.  Another difference is the flower size.  Variegated Kerria’s flowers are more like the species (1/2” to ¾” diameter) in average abundance.  While the floral display is not as intense, it is still worthwhile.  It does not spread near as fast as the green varieties either.
