Description

Landscape & Garden Uses

A dainty little groundcover growing 1 inch or less in height and tolerating foot traffic, White Star Creeper is perfect for use to fill the gaps between stepping stones and pavers, as a groundcover or underplanting for shrubs, roses, perennials and small trees, such as Japanese maples, or as a soil cover in container gardens situated above ground or in the margins of a garden pond. Excellent for bulb gardens where plants such as tulips and daffodils will pop right through in spring. A fine addition to white themed gardens, Asian gardens and bog and water gardens.

Suggested Spacing:  12 to 18 inches apart for mass planting;  6 to 12 inches apart to fill gaps between stepping stones or pavers

Growing Preferences 

White Star Creeper is very easy to grow in consistently moist soils and full sun to part shade. It performs best and will fill a space faster when soil is not allowed to completely dry out.

Plant Long & Prosper!
