Disporum lanuginosum
Fairybells, Yellow Mandarin Zones: 4, 5, 6, 7
Throughout rich woods from Canada to north Alabama and west to Kentucky and Tennessee, Fairybells forms patches of delicately branched, zig-zagging, 30" tall stems with spreading foliage. Yellow/green, nodding, flaring/bell shaped flowers are single or paired at the ends of the stems from early to late spring. Flowering is often followed by a good display of bright red berries in the fall.

Fairybells can make a nice textural addition to your shade garden. Its fine,complex pattern would look good with broad leaved wildflowers.;
