Aegopodium podagraria – Variegatum
Aegopodium podagraria ‘Variegatum’, commonly known as Snow on the Mountain, is a lush, variegated groundcover renowned for its vibrant green leaves edged in creamy-white, creating a luminous effect in shady garden spots. It forms a dense mat around 8–12″ tall and spreads vigorously up to 2–4 ft via underground rhizomes, establishing a striking carpet under trees or along paths. In early to mid-summer, small white umbel flowers appear, though most gardeners opt to remove them to maintain the clean look of the foliage. Hardy in USDA zones 3–9, it thrives in part shade to full shade, tolerates a variety of soil types, and remains evergreen-temporary in mild climates. A highly adaptable yet aggressive plant, it's deer- and rabbit-resistant and ideal for low-maintenance coverage—though caution is advised, as it can become invasive if not contained.
