Japanese Spurge - Green Sheen
Japanese Spurge - Green Sheen The Japanese Spurge 'Green Sheen', Pachysandra terminalis 'Green Sheen', has lustrous, shiny green leaves; the sheen is so impressive you think it can't be real! It is an evergreen ground cover, and the plant has a tidy habit which makes it a landscape winner. It grows in deep shade and is ideal for using under shallow rooted trees. Maturing at a height of 12 inches, it spreads slowly to moderately fast by underground rhizomes. 'Green Sheen' prefers well drained, organically rich loam and shade. It will tolerate some sun in northern zones, but needs shade in southern zones. 'Green Sheen' tolerates heat and humidity better than other Pachysandras. It features tiny spikes of white flowers rising above the foliage in mid spring. This Pachysandra will transform otherwise bare and ugly ground areas into attractive year-round cover! This spurge is also very effective as a border plant along paths or driveway edgings and can be used as a lawn substitute in shaded non-traffic areas. 'Green Sheen' makes an excellent ground cover in small shady areas! * Heat and humidity tolerant * Ground cover * Shiny leaves
