Calculated at Checkout
$8.49
True dense ground cover with evergreen/semi evergreen leaves.
Easy to grow, tough, adaptable, quite drought tolerant perennial.
Fuller round golden flowers in the spring.
In cooler areas, the leaves gain some bronze-red color in the winter.
Not suitable for deep south.
Often mislabeled and confused with native Waldsteinia fragarioides (and that is also the way how we got it).
The flowers are more showy, but they both look very similar and are hard to distinguish.
The genus name honors Count Franz Adam von Waldstein-Wartenberg (1759-1823), Austrian botanist and writer.
Blooming Time: April/May for about 2+ weeks
Size: 0.25’ tall x 1’ wide and slowly spreading wide, spacing 1’-1.25’
USDA Zones: 4 to 8
Culture: full sun in cooler areas, half sun to light shade, grows well in average soil, prefers some organic matter (leaf compost), very adaptable. Doesn’t like the heat and humidity of the deep south; performs better in cooler areas.
Moisture Needs: medium-dry, medium, medium-moist
Origin: eastern part of Russia, Japan, China
Deer/Rabbit Resistant: yes / yes
Attracts Butterflies or Pollinators: some bees
Attracts Hummingbirds: no
Pot Size: square 3.5" x 4" perennial pot (1.22 pt/580 ml)
Plant combinations: Excellent for covering bigger areas around the trees, in dappled shade, or part shade (in cooler areas full sun too). Substitute of law in difficult areas. Good perennial companions can be Aquilegia canadensis, Carex, Geranium maculatum, Heuchera, Polygonatum biflorum, Mertensia virginica, native ferns, etc. Other non-native perennial combinations can be Astilbe, Brunnera, Dicentra, Epimedium, Hosta, Hemerocallis (botanical species), Hakonechloa, Carex, Deschampsia caespitosa, late flowering spring bulbs including Narcissus.
