Welcome to our new site
Ligularia dentata ‘Britt-Marie Crawford’ is a bold and dramatic perennial prized for its rich, glossy foliage in deep maroon to chocolate tones, with large, rounded leaves that can reach up to 6″ across and often reveal striking raspberry-purple undersides. In late summer, tall, dark stems rise 3–4 feet above the foliage, carrying clusters of bright golden-orange, daisy-like flowers that create a stunning contrast against the dark leaves. Thriving in part to full shade with consistently moist, fertile soil, it is an excellent choice for woodland borders, rain gardens, or pond edges where moisture is reliable. Low-maintenance and deer-resistant, this eye-catching variety brings strong architectural presence, dramatic colour, and dependable performance to shaded landscapes.

🌱 Perennial Care Guide (Gatineau/Ottawa)
All perennials at Nesbitt’s are suitable for hardiness zones 1 through 5. This means they are selected to withstand a wide range of colder climates and seasonal temperature variations in our region.
Perennials are expected to return year after year when planted in the right conditions. To support strong root development and long-term performance, use well-draining soil and enrich with compost or peat moss. Choosing the right plant for your garden’s light and soil will help ensure reliable growth and consistent blooms each season.
