Variegated Solomon's Seal (Polygonatum odoratum 'Variegatum') is a beautiful woodland perennial that grows to 2 feet tall with graceful, arching stems. In May it bears delicate white flowers at the leaf junctures. It's a superb shade plant that provides a striking note especially when planted among hostas and in May bears delicate white flowers along the stems. When established, it's highly drought tolerant. Note: The name comes from markings on the rhizome that match the two overlapped triangles of King Solomon's seal, which symbolized the union of body and soul.
