Asarum canadense
Canada wild ginger
A great groundcover for shady situations, large heart-shaped leaves hug the ground and work to hide the flowers which form at the base of the plant, pollinated by flies, ants and beetles. The large, silky leaves pair well with fine-leaved spring perennials such as Dicentra or Sanguinaria.
