carolm 1 Report post Posted May 7, 2013 Looking for a tall, (2-4'), perennial to put under my sugar maple. It would probably qualify for a part sun site but definitely dry due to competition from the tree. Came across solomon's seal, (Polygonatum biflorum), as a possible candidate. Anyone have experience with this plant? Its going to grown on an easement in a open bottom plastic pot sunk into the ground. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Margaret Thele 16 Report post Posted May 7, 2013 Solomon's seal would be a nice choice - the variegated form is this year's perennial plant of the year. Goatsbeard or Aruncus dioicus is another one that comes to mind. Creamy white plumes - looking like a big astilbe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
