Tetrapanax papyrifera Rex
This Taiwanese shrub or small tree will add a touch of exoticism to your garden. Its enormous leaves, up to one metre in length, grow into a luxurious fan. In shrubberies it works well with other showy exotics such as bananas or tree ferns. Because of its size and its tendency to create sprouts, similar to bamboos, it is best planted in large gardens or in isolated beds.
