Veratrum viride – The False Hellebore with its whorls of alternating bold, veined leaves makes quite the statement in spring and early summer in the part, dappled to open shade woodsy garden when planted in the fertile, organic, moist soils it prefers. Also known as Indian Poke, Bear Corn, Corn Lily and American White Hellebore, its green flowers occur in masses at the apex of the plant in late spring... with that many names one might think it would be seen more frequently in gardens. Naturally occurring in moist meadows and rich lowlands in both eastern and western North America, absent from the central part of the continent. These are seed grown... and from seed they are not fast!
