This is the perfect for growing in dense shade or under a tree for a dependable groundcover. Topped with small, creamy white flowers in early spring, Japanese Spurge forms an attractive dense carpet of glossy foliage. A native of Japan, it is useful as a groundcover in a shrub border or in mass in the woodland garden. Works well in high erosion areas to bind the soil and land to reduce further loss.
Growing Tips for Pachysandra terminalis
