Variegated Solomon's Seal
Polygonatum falcatum 'Variegatum'
Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Asparagaceae
Plant Description: Solomon’s seal has green leaves edged with creamy-white emerging from gracefully arching stems. Dangling bell-shaped flowers are white with a lily-like fragrance. Plant size gently increases by thin rhizomes to form colonies in the best growing conditions which occur in moist, organically rich, dappled shade. Excellent in woodland gardens or to stabilize shaded hills. Leaves turn golden yellow in the fall which fades to a cream color similar to dried corn husks. Looks beautiful against dark mulch.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
