Katie Price on Apr 14, 2014Cast Iron Plant is pretty late to send up new growth in the spring after a normal winter. Expect a delay this year. I had a gorgeous stand of 3-foot tall clumps that were burned badly by 0 degrees in January in Atlanta. I have cut the leaves off and anxiously await new growth some time in May.Helpful Reply
