This evergreen, ground-covering plant is very easy to grow even in tricky shady spots and it provides valuable nectar to bees emerging in late winter. It grows to 30cm tall and spreads via underground rhizomes in any position from full sun to full shade and a moist but well-drained soil. Pale pink flowers are produced from February onwards.
