We discovered this unique Solomon's seal in 1997 on Korea's Cheju Island. The leaves are abnormally large for Polygonatum odoratum and are borne very close together compared to typical plants. Finally, the stems twist slightly, creating the effect of a spiral staircase. A clump of Polygonatum 'Spiral Staircase' is stunning in leaf as well as when it is adorned in early spring with clusters of small, white, bell-shaped flowers hanging just below the foliage. In fall, the flowers are replaced by large, blue-black berries. This is a great new vigorous addition to the woodland garden.
