Large-leaf avens is a tough native perennial that thrives in moist, partly shaded spots such as woodland edges, streambanks, or rain gardens. Keep the soil consistently moist and mulch around the base to retain moisture during dry spells. It is relatively low-maintenance and rewards gardeners with cheerful yellow blooms in late spring to early summer.
