Polygonatum odoratum Variegatum 3b This is not a fern(aka: Polygonatum multiflorum 'Variegata') Emanating from a thumb sized horizontal rhizome just below the ground in spring, the delicate pink buds emerge, soon evolving into a 20" ladder of green, pickle sized leaves, edged in white. In May, the small white flowers dangle (or is it dingle?) beneath the arching stems. Polygonatum odoratum 'Variegatum' looks great from spring until it turns bright yellow as it goes dormant in fall.
