| Botanical Name | Thaumatophyllum bipinnatifidum |
| Description | A bold, structural plant perfect for Southeast Texas. While it thrives in Houston's humidity, it requires rich, well-draining soil to prevent root issues. It is not a fan of heavy, compacted clay; if your site has poor drainage, consider planting in a raised bed or amending heavily with organic compost and pine bark. |
| Exposure | Part Shade to Shade; foliage may yellow or burn in direct afternoon sun. |
| Height x Width | 8-10 ft. x 8-10 ft. (at maturity) |
| Water | Average; prefers consistent moisture but allows top inch of soil to dry out. |
| Zones | 8b - 11 (Perennial in Houston; may lose leaves in a hard freeze but usually recovers from the trunk). |
| Fertilization | Balanced slow-release fertilizer every 3-4 months during the growing season. |
| Pruning | Remove yellowing or damaged lower leaves to maintain a clean appearance. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
