Description
A woodland favorite, False Solomon's Seal enhances Massachusetts shade gardens with arching green foliage and creamy white flower clusters in summer. By late summer, these flowers give way to clusters of ornamental red berries, offering four-season interest and natural beauty to shaded spaces.
Perfect for naturalizing, False Solomon's Seal spreads gracefully and provides habitat for beneficial insects and birds. In Massachusetts, it thrives in groundcover plantings or woodland garden designs, where its medium texture balances well with finer foliage. Though it requires seasonal upkeep, it remains low on the deer’s list of preferred snacks.
Each plant comes in a #1 (1 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
