long-stemmed leaves of aspidistra are reminiscent of spears. Its insignifacant
flowers are of a murky violet color. Although most varieties have evenly colored,

Happy in shade or a brightly lit room, just be sure to keep out of direct sun.
Keep evenly moist in summer, but avoid waterlogging. Feed once a month with
a weak solution.
