Polygonatum biflorum nanum ‘Prince Charming’
Solomon’s Seal |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.438.300
The graceful, arching stems of Solomon’s Seal add an exotic touch to the shade garden and are often described as being architectural. This vigorous selection has blue-green leaves on arching stems and clusters of dangling, creamy-white, bell flowers in late spring, followed by a crop of purple berries in the fall. Excellent for cutting. Beautiful in the woodland garden, combining well with ferns and Hosta of all kinds. Plants are a little slow to establish, but clumps are long-lived and carefree. May be divided in early fall, once clumps are large enough. Usually turns bright golden-yellow in October for a brief but glorious finish to the season. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
