Wintercreeper (Euonymus fortunei 'Acutus')
A show-stopping, leathery rich evergreen trailing shrub-like vine, Euonymus fortunei promises to deliver a deep backdrop for any landscape. Its fast growth rate offers quick, erosion controlling coverage in a variety of environmental conditions including salt, slopes, a wide pH range, poor soil, and anything from dense shade to full sun.
The deep green or purple-green (depending on variety) shiny, egg-shaped leaves are almost like flowers themselves making this plant truly irresistible. If you've got a large, blank canvas, this is one groundcover you'll want to consider.
