Description

The listing, WILD gINgER / ArROW head ground cover plant! Live! has ended.

It’s heart-shaped, palm-sized leaves are a rich green and it does produce a lovely, rather exotic little flower in May that you have to lift up its leaves to see. The mat of foliage is from four to six inches high and will spread as far as the eye can see if you let it. It burns out in the summer sun, so keep it in at least partial shade.

The flowers of the Canadian Wild Ginger are lovely, but hidden. You need to lift their leaves to see them.
One of the great uses of this groundcover is growing it in dry, shady places. It can add a lot of life and vibrancy to a dry, dull spot in the garden. You will need to supplement watering the first year you plant or transplant, but after that it will take care of itself. Start looking for the volunteers to show up in the garden, often under creeping plants or on the floor of densely planted, taller plants, such as a stand of coneflowers.
An extra added treat: when you move it, the roots give off their strong, ginger aroma, that gets on your hands and lifts your spirits. Multiplies fast. Evergreen.
