information: Gunnera is an enormously large clump
forming annual
suitable for only very large bogs. It looks similar to a fancy
leaved Rhubarb.
Gunnera is not winter hardy in
Colorado and may be difficult to locate. Plant if full sun to
partial shade in boggy or very moist soils... then stand back and
watch your yard get smaller.
