Everwilde Farms 20 Solomon's Seal Flower Seeds, Resealable Mylar Packaging

Fit for a royal garden, these lovely bell-like flowers adorn the underside of orderly green fronds that gracefully curve along their entire height. The hardy perennial is an excellent choice for shaded, woodland areas, and the ripe berries add interest in the fall. The roots of this plant are distinguished by round, flat structures that resemble an old-fashioned seal. One observant botanist noticed that these markings were similar to the hebrew letters on king solomon's ancient seal, which explains the common name. Interestingly, each year of the plant's growth adds a new "Seal." the genus name "Polygonatum" is derived from the greek words for "Many knees," most likely referring to the knobby growth of the plant's root system. The species name "Canaliculatum" means "Channeled," in reference to the long grooves in each leaf.
