Open shade suits it fine. Early spring bloomer. Many other types, hard to say which is my favorite since they're all beautiful & easy. #3 is adina rubella. Glossy clean pinnate foliage with 'sputnik' flowers. Woodland setting. #4 is polygonatum odoratum. This is my favorite, a cultivar called Chollipo. The variegated one is also beautiful and more common. I like Chollipo's rich broad quilted leaves. Grows in expanding drifts which are really pretty. There are so many more choices ... it's fun to just experiment! |
