Disporum (Fairy Bells)

The JLBG collection includes about 12 species (including subspecies and varieties), 1 undetermined; 46 clones

Disporum are excellent woodland perennials, long prized in Japan, where a large number of variegated selections have been made. We have found that Disporum sessile is quite a vigorous runner so plant it where you aren't worried about it swamping its neighbors. Disporum flavens is a well behaved species which stays in a nice tight clump.
