Polygonatum verticillatum | whorled Solomon's seal

Solomon's Seal are trouble free lily relatives that need little more than a shady spot to thrive.

Whorled Solomon's Seal is worth growing for the interesting change in texture it offers. It grows as a tall column: 4' tall and 18" wide and it looks nothing like its graceful relatives, rather it has foliage similar to Amsonia both in form and amber fall color. Interesting!
