Tricyrtis can be propagated by root cuttings, stem cuttings, or division. Spring is the best time to divide and early summer the best time to root cuttings. I have done fall root cuttings with good success. Despite its odd common name, Tricyrtis offer a last hurrah in the garden- a jewel forgotten and then found again in the settling fall garden. White flowers are spotted purple.
Flowers are smaller than most species.
Tricyrtis hirta The most common form, upright stems to 2' carry hairy leaves, White flowers heavily speckled purple. Blooms here in September. The rather spectacular flower of this plant has a base with a purple edge, increasing towards the tip and a blue splash in the centre of the three broader petals. The whole flowers is sprinkled with fine red spots and a yellow neck suffused up the petal. The petals are narrow and quite upright, wide and curled.
