Monday Nature Mystery
We are pleased to announce the winner of last week's Monday Nature Mystery, Pratima KT! Please email us your snail mail address and preference for a hat or tote bag to: [email protected]
Congratulations to Pratima for correctly identifying one of our favorite native ground covers, Allegheny spurge (Pachysandra procumbens). This slow-growing plant blooms in early spring. It's best suited for shade to part-shade locations where the soil is rich in organic matter. It’s a lovely addition to any native plant garden!
