Chinese rice-paper plant

Grow outdoors in milder areas, in well-drained soil in full sun, and protect from cold winds. In colder areas grow against a warm wall, in a cool greenhouse, or in a large container that can be moved indoors over winter. If kept frost-free it will be evergreen; with mild frosts the plant is deciduous, and in colder areas it may die back to ground level then reshoot from the roots.

Remove dead or damaged leaves as necessary. Remove suckers if you want to prevent the spread of established clumps

Propagate by seed sown in containers in a cold frame in autumn, or by division, removing suckers in spring or summer

Generally pest-free

Generally disease-free
