Maianthemum dilatatum (False lily-of-the-valley) 4"
False lily-of-the-valley makes an effective & beautiful ground cover, which readily spreads. It prefers shady woodland soils with lots of organic matter.
White blooms appear on on small stalks in May-June, followed by bright red berries that persist over winter! It is ~2-3 in. high with broad, glossy heart-shaped leaves that die back in the winter. Lovely mixed with another heart-shaped PNW native for shade, the evergreen Wild Ginger (Asarum caudatum)!
Grow in part to deep shade, with humus-rich soil or topped dressed with compost. Drought tolerant once established.
