Disporopsis pernyi 'Sichuan Jade'
Evergreen Solomon's Seal
From Sichuan, China, adapts well to the Northwest of US. Makes dense clumps of upright stems clad in glossy evergreen leaves below which dangle white bells in spring. In spring, the plants are adorned with small white flowers but unless you're really short, you'll probably miss 'em. Disporopsis 'Sichuan Jade' multiplies fairly quickly in good rich soil.
