H. americana is a small (under 2ft. high and wide) evergreen perennial native to Central U.S. Lobed semi-palmate green, purple, or brown leaves are often veined or marbled. A loose raceme of insignificant green to cream flowers are born on 3' stalks in early summer.
This species has become popular with horticulturists and home-gardeners. It is usually grown for its unique foliage. New varieties are introduced yearly.
