ses.VARIEGATUM

Disporum sessile `Variegatum', white bells, 8-10", April-May. White margine, lance and pointed leaves are clasped around the stem in alternate fashion. Terminal races of hanging bells bring joy to the spring garden like a fairy. maybe that's where they got the common name "Fairy Bells"? Spreads slowly from underground rhizomes. After the flowers are spent the fruit(seed)becomes purple-black berries! A prized possession for the Perennial Collector nut, so-to-speak. Shade, part-shade. Plant it somewhere you can keep an eye on it. Good soil.
