Very lovely young plant! Planted directly in the garden, it seems to be enjoying itself there.

Description

This woodland spreading ground cover is an excellent choice for leafy areas where it thrives in cool, humus-rich, well-drained soil. It tolerates dry shade very well and can grow at the base of trees and conifers. It typically reaches a height of 30cm (12in) and spreads to a width of 30cm (12in).

Our selection, ‘Diane Clare’, is characterised by its silver foliage with green veins in spring, turning green with silver spots. It provides a beautiful backdrop for deep blue flowers that bloom from March.

It forms beautiful combinations with Muscari latifolium, Allium ursinum, and tulip 'Queen of the Night'.
