Add a touch of frosted elegance to your garden with the stunning Fatsia Japonica 'Spider's Web'. This unique variety of the classic 'Japanese Aralia' is prized for its extraordinary variegated foliage. Each large, palm-like leaf is heavily speckled and splashed with creamy-white markings, giving it a beautiful "frosted" or web-like appearance.
The variegation changes with the seasons and the age of the plant, ensuring a dynamic look throughout the year. Perfect for brightening up dark, shaded corners, this architectural shrub is a must-have for tropical or contemporary garden designs. Supplied established in a 3L nursery pot.
