Polygonatum odoratum 'Silver Saddle' is our 2025 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction of a hybrid between two clones of Polygonatum odoratum, 'Goldilocks' and 'Koryu'. The result is a compact, fast-multiplying clone, composed of 1' long, arching dark purple stalks, clothed with medium green leaves, each with a raised silver ridge down the center. For us, this has shown dramatically more vigor that Polygonatum 'Koryu' with a much more compact growth habit. The stalks are laden with white, tubular bell-shaped flowers in early April (NC).
