Polygonatum multiflorum aka Solomon's Seal

If you're looking for a plant that offers a moderate level of challenge, Solomon's Seal is a great choice to test your gardening skills.

Solomon's Seal should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Solomon's Seal loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Solomon's Seal prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

There is no verified data on the toxicity of this plant in the records of Ploi. If any person, including yourself, a family member, or a pet, consume plant material with an uncertain toxicity level, it is advisable to seek the advice of a healthcare expert.

The Solomon's Seal is characterized by its slow growth and doesn't need fertilization in addition to its potting soil. By renewing the soil in its pot once a year, it should have enough nutrition. Remember, plants get their energy from sunlight, not from any fertilizers.

Solomon's Seal’s native range is Europe, including Britain, from Scandanavia south and east to Spain, and temperate Asia to Japan.
