Aegopodium podagraria 'Variegatum'

Variegated Bishops Weed, Variegated Goutweed, Snow on the Mountain

These weedy fast-growing plants tolerate shady or moist places and soil too poor for other plants. Use as edging or ground cover near buildings or where contained by concrete or wooden barriers. Otherwise, their creeping rootstocks can become invasive. Small flowers bloom white or yellow. Can be pruned to keep height low.

This tough ground cover is less weedy than the green-leafed species and so is grown more often. Its white-margined leaves are irregularly variegated. Remove plants that change to solid green leaves.
