(aka: Disporum uniflorum) I first encountered this fairy bell in the wild in 1997 on Korea's Uulong Island. Even before then, I already prized it as the star of the Genus disporum. As the plant emerges (like a Solomon's seal) in spring, the vivid yellow flowers at the end of the stalk are already visible. As the upright stalk reaches its ultimate height, within days the tips turn outward and the yellow flowers burst forth in a spectacular display...a great upright 2' wide clumper for the woodland garden. In late summer, the clump is covered with dark black berries...very easy to grow and simply superb in the woodland garden.
