Native to moist PNW forests, this plant blankets cool, damp shadows.
A great ground cover for shade. Pink and white flowers peak through the greenery in the spring, and its three, heart-shaped leaflets are sure to bring you lots of luck.
A taste of the leaves reveals a sour green apple flavor that comes from the oxalic acid for which it is named. In high quantities it can be toxic, but sampling a leaf or two is a fun treat.
Plant it with a plethora of shady ground covers for best results (Maianthemums, fairybells, Vancouveria, Vanilla Leaf, etc.)
