The specific epithet sieboldii commemorates Philipp Franz von Siebold, a notable plant collector of the 19th century.
This plant requires some protection from low temperatures in winter, and is often seen in cultivation as a houseplant or in an alpine garden. The cultivar 'Mediovariegatum' with variegated green and cream leaves, has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
