Chrysogonum virginianum 'Eco Laquered Spider'
Green and Gold Zones: 6, 7, 8, 9
'Eco Laquered Spider' is a fast spreading Green and Gold. It forms evergreen, flattened clumps of shiny green leaves, which emerge rather grayish and fuzzy. These 2-inch high clumps send out runners which root along the way forming more clumps. In average to good soil, with light mulch and part shade, expect one plant to spread 3 feet or more in 2 years. One-inch buttercup-like flowers appear in spring. This is a great ground cover where you want a fairly fast spreader but do not plant it with other low growers that it could overrun. Cat# 1364

- This is a very nice ground cover for shade or mostly shade in zone 7b. Mine is growing on a slope. It does better in soil enriched with organics. Mine got infested with Ajuga reptans, and the similar foliage, roots and runners made it hard to remove. So keep them well apart.
