Green Sheen Pachysandra

A shiny appearance; appears wet; impressive looking.

Specific; Pachysandra, Green Sheen or Pachysandra terminalis Green Sheen is part of the Japanese Spurges family.

Japanese Spurges are evergreen all year and self-sustaining. What makes the Green Sheen Pachysandra different from its relatives is the tremendous glossiness of its foliage. When you first encounter the plant it almost looks plastic or fake. The sheen is so impressive you think it can't be real. Once you have seen a Green Sheen Pachysandra you will never mistake it for other cultivars.

It has fragrant white flowers that appear briefly in April and are followed by a second-story layering of fresh, spring-green leaves.

General; Once established, a Pachysandra planting will eliminate grass cutting and weeding. Your lawn work stops where this plant starts. This plant is used extensively under large spreading trees, back of buildings or in other situations too shady for grass to grow. It is self-sustaining and always looks good. It is an excellent ground cover for problem areas as it grows in just about any soil and is one of the few ground covers that will grow under pine trees.

Pachysandra will transform otherwise bare and ugly ground areas into attractive year-round cover. It is also very effective as a border plant along paths or driveway edgings and can be used as a lawn substitute in shaded non-traffic areas. It works very nicely in the front of shaded borders or as filler between larger shrubs. Dense enough to keep down weeds, it is a great solution for dark parts of the garden, where other plants fear to tread. It is extremely hardy, and fragrant.

Applying triple phosphate
