    Don't allow Langtrees to go to seed, as this may result in solid green plants. Keep it out of the hot summer sun to prevent leaf scorch. Great woodland plant. Grow in consistently moist, organic soil. This variety does better in the northern U.S. areas and is not a plant for the south. Not native to North America.
