Evergreen perennial. Used as ground cover. Thick green heavily textured foliage forms a durable and adaptable weed smothering mat. Fall weather causes the leaves to turn red and deep purple, but leaves remain on giving nice winter color. Small white flowers bloom in spring, followed by orange berries in late summer and fall. Great groundcover for slopes and for creeping around rock work. Deer resistant. Moderate water needs once established. Requires good drainage. Hardy to 0°F.
