Ruscus hypophyllum

(SPANISH BUTCHER’S BROOM) Luxurious deep green shiny leaves in a spreading clump 2’ tall...decorative bright red berries in
fall, winter. Spreads slowly by rhizomes and makes an elegant, year round, ground cover. A beautiful plant that takes dry shade and will even compete with tree roots! Leaves are sought after (and berries in season) by floral arrangers for filler; leaves can be used fresh or dried and can last for months! Rich, well drained soil is best, but adapts to most soil conditions...shade to part shade. Rare!
