Design Tips
Spreads slowly by underground rhizomes (roots). It’s not aggressive though and co-exists peacefully with other spring woodland plants. Plant with other spreading plants such as Wild Geranium and Pennsylvania Sedge for a nice groundcover.
Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
