Mitchella repens

Vernacular name: 
Partridge Berry
Famille: 
Rubiaceae

Aesthetics and practicality: this is the mix offered by this very pretty creeping and perennial plant, also known by its vernacular name: Pain de Perdrix. Next to its evergreen round leaves throughout the year, its small white trumpet flowers come to beautify your garden and bring a beautiful cover to your space.

You can take advantage of its personality in any season, for example by placing it in the middle of other plants to fill in the gaps. Be sure to favor shady sections of the garden: this perennial Mitchella prefers temperate environments.
