The Story
Rubus pentalobus 'Emerald Carpet'
This durable evergreen groundcover, from the mountains of Taiwan, has beautiful clover-shaped, leathery green foliage with firm hairs that give the leaves a prickly texture. It spreads vigorously to cover the ground, turning an attractive coppery color in the autumn. It grows only a few inches tall. The subtle white flowers give way to mildly-flavored and infrequent orange berries that ripen in early summer.Ā
Grows in sun or shade. Tolerates heat well, and drought tolerant once established. Self fertile, and cold hardy to USDA zone 6.
