tall perennial for under maple?

Recommended Posts

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!

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.
