In desperation planted some in a shady but dry spot where so far it is not the flourisher I had anticipated but more a terminalis. <br /><br />LauraLaura Bloomsburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03163589497828975276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106418510267458618.post-40542549772967829022010-08-23T23:55:25.633-07:002010-08-23T23:55:25.633-07:00Gary, and don't for get the moles that like di...Gary, and don't for get the moles that like dinning on those nasty little grubbies... - GGaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653020388235448819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106418510267458618.post-69243352994629413772010-08-23T23:03:09.233-07:002010-08-23T23:03:09.233-07:00Hi Edith,

Nasty, voracious creatures, capable of reducing bowling green lawns to bare earth in a matter of moments and known to reduce even grown adults to tears. Yes, yes, extermination is the order of the day.<br /><br />Now, Pachysandra terminalis. In my book, if clearly not in yours, this plant scores 11/10!! I have recommended this plant more times than I can remember and, sadly, is never taken up as much as I think it deserves. Tolerant of a wide range of conditions, thrives on neglect, rewards with fresh white flowers over glossy green foliage. What is not to like? I really cannot see why the Spirea 'Goldflame' has a place in your heart that could, in my view, be outstripped instantly by this charming evergreen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
