Pachysandra terminalis 'Green Sheen' / JAPANESE SPURGE
Pachysandra terminalis 'Green Sheen,' commonly known as Japanese Spurge, is a low-growing, evergreen groundcover valued for its glossy, dark green, oval-shaped leaves that form a dense, lush carpet. It excels in partial to full shade, making it perfect for underplanting trees or covering shady garden areas where grass struggles. This cultivar spreads via underground rhizomes, creating a uniform cover with less aggressive growth than other varieties. In mid to late spring, it produces small, fragrant white flower spikes, though its vibrant, shiny foliage remains the main draw. 'Green Sheen' is deer-resistant, drought-tolerant once established, and adaptable to various soil types, earning it the RHS Award of Garden Merit for its garden versatility.
