Polygonatum biflorum, commonly known as Solomon’s seal, is a classic garden shade plant that gives garden beds an architectural component thanks to its arched stems. The stems are lined with small white bell-shaped flowers at the bottom in spring.
These flowers then give way to bluish-black berries that are loved by wildlife. In addition, this plant’s spreading, clustered growth makes it an excellent ground cover for shady locations. Solomon’s Seal is a hardy perennial native to North America, Europe, and Asia.
