A wonderful non-invasive trailing groundcover in the shade garden or delightful in a hanging basket, this 5"t x 36"w trailer has nicely lobed, handsomely marked foliage. PSh-Sh/M PPAF

By: Forestfarm

This rapid trailer is a wonderful ground cover in any shade garden. The leaves are deeply lobed and well marked. A very clean habit with a few, short spikes of white flowers. Works great in a hanging basket. A good replacement for English ivy as a groundcover or in baskets. Prefers moist, well drained soils.
