Chrysogonum virginianum 'Pierre' is a deciduous, low growing, mat forming plant. Spreads by stolons much like Ajuga. Green leaves are 3" long, ovate and fuzzy. Yellow, daisy-like blooms appear in Spring and last until Early Summer. Blooms will be sparser when Green and Gold is grown in the shade. Prefers average to moist well drained soil. Needs ample water when grown in full sun. Chrysogonum requires afternoon shade in the Southern zones. Useful for ground cover, borders, edging, woodland gardens and naturalizing. Mature height 4"-6", spread 18"-24".
Green and gold will adapt to most soil conditions, if it is moist and well-drained. It is also sun tolerant, although partial or full shade is recommended in southern regions; not very drought tolerant.
A native groundcover ideal for the woodland garden, or as a border and tolerates limited foot traffic.

Chrysogonum V. Pierre
Fabulous plants that arrived on time and well packaged. They are thriving in my yard. Thanks!

Woodland edge ground cover
I have a yard that is on the edge of a a hardwood forest in Chapel Hill, NC and was looking for something to replace the grass. This ground cover loves it in this location and in 2 years has filled the area that I hoped to cover. We have a lot of hungry deer and although it is the last thing they will nibble on, they will snack on it when they are hungry enough. I plan to buy more as I develop new shade gardens on my property.

Great Chrysogonum
Planted these last summer and they stayed hardy and healthy through the winter and they are blooming and happy this spring. I'm thinking of ordering a few more, soon.
