A climbing species with clusters of tubby maroon bells in the leaf axils Another of Dan Hinkleys wonderful introductions there is some confusion about the name, the flora of china now lumps this with Polygonatum cirrhifolium, see the flora of china for details.____ZONE 6?

A legendary plant hookeri is the Polygonatum for troughs. Hookeri is a true alpine reaching 5000 meters in the Himalayas and Western China, the 3-5cm high stems can form mats a meter wide in the wild, but don’t plan on that in your garden. Hookeri is difficult but worth any amount of effort, the huge pink flowers are unlike anything else in the genus. The AGS manual recommends alkaline soils and plenty of sun, however mine are living is slightly acid soil and 60% shade.____ZONE 4

An obviously different clone from Dan, slightly taller, with the same axillary white flowers.____ZONE 4
