Wild ginger plant, Asarum canadense is an excellent, easy plant for shade and does not require much attention. It is most famous for its uniqueness and variety and is perfect for adding color and texture to your landscape.
It is simple. It loves a rich, organic soil and grows in part to full shade, making it an ideal companion plant for woodland gardens or shade borders. Once established, this plant needs little maintenance other than frequent watering in dry periods and the pulling of dead leaves to keep it neat.
Their heart-shaped leaves form a dense blanket of foliage in shades from deep green to silvery pastels. Throughout the season, their leaves come alive and enhance the landscape. The plant is primarily prized for its leaves, but in the spring, it will bear small bell-shaped flowers around its base.

Given adequate attention, this plant can last decades in your garden, making it an excellent addition to the collection.
