Nursery contributed plant descriptions

New from China for the woodland garden is this graceful evergreen perennial with its sleek glossy foliage and white spring bells striped with black. PSh/M

By: Forestfarm

Neatly compact, evergreen solomon's seal, spreading into clusters of dark green stems to only 18" tall with shiny green, 5" leaves and, in late spring to early summer, tiny white, sweetly aromatic bell-flowers hanging from the leaf undersides. A perfect size to fit under larger shrubs or small trees in the shaded garden or set amongst ferns. Drought tolerant once established but enjoys summer water especially in very dry periods. Frost hardy to -10F, USDA zone 6.

Evergreen Solomon's seal, really, we don't make these things up. This is another of the cool new woodland plants coming out of China of late. A rare form with large creamy white flowers tipped in purplish black in the leaf axils, this can take a lot of shade. Thinking of buying yet another Hosta that probably looks pretty much like a zillion others, show some backbone, or at least a notochord and purchase Disporopsis instead.
