Description:
Paris polyphylla is a unique perennial plant native to southern China, known for its striking spider-like flowers with long, yellowish-green petals. It grows up to 3 feet tall, featuring an umbrella of leaflets and bright red berries if pollinated. This plant thrives in moist, humus-rich soil under a forest canopy and is often used as an ornamental plant in woodland gardens. It is related to the trillium and prefers shady environments, making it ideal for forested areas. Paris polyphylla is listed as vulnerable by the IUCN, and it reproduces mainly through vegetative propagation due to low seed viability. The plant's leaves are arranged in a whorl below the flower, which blooms in summer and autumn. It is a slow-spreading perennial that can grow at altitudes up to 10,800 feet.
