Partridgeberry (Mitchella repens)
$15 for 3
Native evergreen ground cover with interesting foliage, flowers and fruit. Plant in woodland/shade gardens, under acid-loving shrubs and trees and in part shade areas of border fronts and rock gardens. Not particularly aggressive, so probably not the best choice for large areas, but rather smaller sites.
The scarlet fruits are relished by partridges, and they are consumed by a variety of birds and mammals.
3 bare root, dormant plants for $15
