GREEN CARPET JAPANESE SPURGE  Pachysandra terminalis ‘Green Carpet’
• A low‑growing, evergreen groundcover shrublet prized for its dense, glossy, deep‑green foliage that forms a uniform carpet throughout the year. One of the most reliable shade groundcovers for cold climates where turfgrass struggles.
• Produces small clusters of white, fragrant spring flowers held just above the foliage; while not showy, they add subtle seasonal interest and support early pollinators.
• Spreads slowly by rhizomes to create a thick, weed‑suppressing mat; ideal for underplanting trees, shaded foundations, north‑facing beds, and woodland gardens.
• Prefers moist, well‑drained, humus‑rich soils and thrives in full to deep shade; tolerates urban conditions but dislikes hot, dry, exposed sites.
• Part Shade to Full Shade
• Zone 4, 15–20 cm Height × spreading
