Luzula nivea - Snow Grass Ground Cover (48 Pack)
Luzula nivea, commonly known as snow grass or snowy woodrush, is an evergreen, winter-hardy perennial that brings year-round interest to shaded garden areas. This bulk pack of 48 plants provides excellent value for larger landscaping projects, ground cover installations, or border plantings.
Key Features
The distinctive fuzzy, silver-tinged foliage creates a soft, luminous effect in the garden, particularly striking in low-light conditions. Each plant grows in a compact, bushy form reaching 10-25cm in height, making it ideal for front-of-border positions or as an understory plant. The silver sheen of the leaves provides visual interest throughout all four seasons, including winter when many other plants have died back.
Growing Characteristics
Luzula nivea forms dense mats that provide effective, low-maintenance ground coverage. In spring, small subtle flowers emerge, adding delicate charm without overwhelming the foliage display. This plant thrives in shaded areas where many other perennials struggle, making it particularly valuable for woodland gardens, north-facing borders, and under tree canopies.
Ideal Applications
- Ground cover for shaded areas
- Rock garden plantings
- Border edging and front-of-border positions
- Woodland garden understory
- Mass plantings for textural contrast
Plant Specifications
Each Luzula nivea plant is supplied in a 9cm recyclable growing pot at a height of 10-25cm. The compact root system establishes quickly once planted, spreading gradually to form attractive clumps. This bulk pack of 48 plants covers approximately 3-4 square meters when planted at recommended spacing.
Care Requirements
Snow grass requires minimal maintenance once established. It tolerates a range of soil conditions and is fully winter-hardy. The evergreen foliage means no seasonal cleanup is required, though old flower stems can be trimmed back after blooming if desired.
