Creeping Wire Vine
A low creeping evergreen ground cover, that forms a spreading mat of wiry stems. Tiny rounded leaves with a glossy green finish. Fall and winter color is an attractive bronze green. Insignificant green flowers become black-seeded white berries in late summer. Great for large areas. Vigorous habit. Plants may be mown once a year in the spring to encourage thicker growth. Good in combination with spring flowering bulbs. Tolerates fairly high foot traffic and dry conditions, once established.
