Wild Ginger (Asarum Canadense) | Bare-root
Wild Ginger (Asarum canadense) has large heart-shaped leaves and a dense root system that work together to form a solid ground cover in the shade. An attractive red flower, often hidden from view by the foliage, blooms in early spring. Wild Ginger keeps its beautiful foliage throughout the season, making it a good companion to spring ephemerals that go dormant after they bloom. It combines well with a host of other natives, such as Maidenhair Fern, Lady Fern, Ostrich Fern, Jacob’s Ladder and Wild Blue Phlox – to name a few. Once established, a ground cover of Wild Ginger can fend off Garlic Mustard and other invasives. Transplants spaced one foot apart will form a solid cover in two to three years. This deer resistant woodland native tolerates a variety of soil types, including clay. Although not related to culinary ginger, the roots of Wild Ginger produce a scent that is similar to ginger. Fresh or dried roots were used by early Americans as a ginger substitute, but the plant is not normally used today for culinary purposes. Other common names include Woodland Ginger, Coltsfoot, Indian Ginger, Namepin and Sturgeon Potato.
Wild Geranium ( Geranium canadense) | Bulbs
A common woodland native, found throughout the eastern half of the U.S, Wild Geranium delivers an abundance of bright lavender flowers that are super-attractive to pollinators. Solitary bees, bumble bees and several species of butterflies are drawn to its nectar and pollen. This is a great plant for offering pollinator support in the spring. The long-lived plants expand to form a nice mounded mass, covered with flowers. Deeply lobed palmate leaves stay attractive all season-long in the shade, where it can eventually form a very nice ground cover. Geranium maculatum does prefer shade or partial shade, but it will grow in full sun if the soil is rich and consistently damp. Also called Cranesbill, a common name which refers to the pointy structure on the seed pod that serves to jetison the mature seed pods away from the parent plant. Wild geranium is a larval host plant for the White-Marked Tussock moth Orgyia leucostigma.
