Evergreen woodland/woodland edge, clumping grass.

Shiny, ribbon-like leaves. Quite low maintenance groundcover (in the spring clean off the dry leaves only).

Blooming Time: late spring-early summer
Size: usually 0.75-1' tall and wide clumps, with flowers 1.5-2' tall
USDA Zones: 4 to 9 (heat zones 4-9), but probably better for temperate or cooler areas
Culture: partial shade, dappled shade, full shade. Very adaptable to soil types, soils of any pH. Prefers moderately fertile (average) soils with some organic material or organic mulch (leaf debris) and average moisture (medium). Avoid waterlogged and poorly draining soils. Doesn't tolerate sun.
Moisture Needs: average (medium) to medium-moist or medium-dry
Origin: native to deciduous or mixed woodlands of Europe and southwest Asia

Deer/Rabbit Resistant: yes / yes
Attracts Butterflies or Pollinators: no / no
Attracts Hummingbirds: no
Pot Size: square 3.5" x 4" deep perennial pot
Plant Combinations: More or less groundcovering clumps can be combined with any half shade or shade tolerant plant - Actaea (Cimicifuga), Alchemilla, Anemone japonica, Bergenia, Brunnera, Dicentra, Digitalis, Epimedium, hardy Geranium (G. maculatum, G. phaeum), , Geum, Helleborus, Hepatica, Hosta, Iris cristata, Lathyrus vernus, Persicaria, Phlox divaricata, Phlox stolonifera, Primula, Polygonatum, Pulmonaria, Salvia koyame, Scutellaria, Stylophorum, Tricyrtis, Uvularia and ferns. Looks wonderful with more fine structures of grasses like Carex (both narrow and wide- leaved), Chasmantium, Deschamspia, Hakonechloa, Hystrix, or Melica.

Goes well with bulbs (Anemone blanda, Narcissus) and native spring ephemerals like Claytonia, Dodecatheon, Hepatica, Mertensia, Jeffersonia, Sanguinaria, Trillium and others.

  • “Great Rush!” 5

    Posted by Ms. 615 on Sep 06 2024

    I ordered 5 GREATER WOOD RUSHes 9/2/2024, they arrived early a.m. 9/6/2024. Excellent packaging that ensured minimal shock or impact to the plant. Plant specimens arrived healthy with excellent root systems- shiny leaves and multiple stems, zero cracks on stems or detectable weeds in the soil. I would purchase again, A++rating.
