(P) to 4′. A Korean dignitary. Large, sharply lobed, maple-like leaves in opposite pairs display a handsome silvery pubescence when emerging in spring. The foliage provides interest through late summer when the flowers emerge. Pale yellow, waxy, five-petalled flowers are borne on a stiffly upright inflorescence. Blooms a bit earlier than K. palmata. A “must-have.” Prefers partial shade. 5 & T2
