Winter Splash^™ Wintergreen

The only variegated Gaultheria available, Winter Splash Wintergreen is a must-have ground cover for those who love to enjoy the winter landscape. Also called Teaberry or Boxberry, Wintergreen is native to the United States, and this cultivar is truly one-of-a-kind. The foliage is showy white and green through the growing season, turning pink in winter. White, bell-shaped flowers appear in mid-late spring and persist through the summer, turning to large, bright red berries in fall. Winter Splash's berries are a natural food source for pheasant and other wildlife. A plant for multiple seasons and multiple senses, wintergreen features lovely leaves with a pleasant, minty aroma. In winter, the combination of pink and green leaves along with bubbling red berries creates a festive look. An excellent container plant. Gaulteria procumbens 'Gaulbri1" PP30791
