Description
(the plant widely grown under the above name is probably in fact Polygonatum hybridum Variegatum)
Arching 70 cm stems with heavily-variegated alternate green and cream leaves make an eye-catching display, especially in contrast to other Polygonatum. In spring, clusters of pendant, tubular, greenish-cream, slightly fragrant flowers are produced in the leaf axils.
Easily grown in sun or (preferably) in light or partial shade, in a fertile soil, but it is very tolerant indeed.
An old garden clone, our stock came to us originally from Mr Frank R. Waley’s wonderful garden ‘Wavertree’ at Sevenoaks in Kent in the 1980s
