Allegheny Spurge Plant Roots (Pachysandra Procumbens) - 5 Roots, Shade Ground Cover

About This Product

Need a tough, beautiful ground cover for those shady spots where grass won't grow? Meet Allegheny Spurge (Pachysandra procumbens). This listing is for 5 bare roots – not potted plants – so they're ready for you to plant directly in the ground. It's an unbranded offering, but the plant itself is a superstar: it thrives in partial shade to full shade, which is perfect under trees or on the north side of your house. It's super hardy, surviving in USDA zone 3 (that's down to -40°F!). In spring, it produces cute little white or pinkish flower spikes before its mottled green foliage fully emerges. It spreads slowly to form a dense carpet that suppresses weeds. Great for woodland gardens, slopes, or as an edging plant. These roots are sold as a \flowering\ characteristic type. Just plant them in decent soil, keep them moist at first, and let them do their thing. A low-maintenance, native-ish perennial that adds texture and color to your shade garden.
