Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegatum'

An attractive groundcover for the shade, 'Variegatum' is a light green and white variegated version of Bishop's Weed. Though it produces 14 inch tall umbels of tiny, creamy-white flowers in early summer, it is usually grown for its pretty foliage.

If you are looking to rapidly fill in a space beneath a tree, on a slope, or any place that nothing else will grow, this is the perfect plant for you. It can be invasive, but if it's planted in the right spot, it is beautiful. Try growing it near a shady path in a large tub where its growth can be contained.
