 Ragwort/
Leopard Plant

Ligularias are at their best when grown
in cool, moist locations in part shade. Protection from the hot, afternoon
sun in the south is essential to prevent wilting. They are a natural for the
pond side where there is a constant supply of moisture, though they do
require good drainage.
