Pachysandra terminalis (Japanese Spurge)
Color Name: Green Sheen
Bring life to dim garden corners with Pachysandra Green Sheen, the glossy, evergreen groundcover that thrives where others won't. Its rich, dark green leaves have an unmistakable high-gloss finish, adding texture and elegance year-round. Perfect for shady beds, borders, and under trees, this hardy, low-maintenance plant forms a lush carpet that resists weeds and erosion.
Growing Tips: Prefers shade to part shade. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, especially in hot climates. Ideal under trees, along north-facing walls, or in woodland gardens.
Keep soil consistently moist while plants are establishing. Once mature, Pachysandra is fairly drought-tolerant, but benefits from occasional watering in dry spells. Avoid soggy soil - overwatering can cause root rot.
