Shade Gardening: Does anyone grow disporums?, 4 by Weerobin

Here are a few I have grown:
#1 is Disporum flavens - easy.
Quite upright with dangling yellow bells in early spring (April here).
The rest are cultivars of D. sessile:
#2 is D sessile Goldbug - a variegated low-growing cultivar
#3 is D sessile variegatum - more vigorous than the golden variegates, in my opinion.
#4 is D sessile Awa-no-tsuki - very pretty but slow growing for me.
I lost both Goldbug & Awa-no-tsuki to a single tree-removal fiasco several years ago.
The guys basically dragged the felled trees through my woodland garden.
I wasn't very happy, but nothing to be done about it other than view it as another planting opportunity.
