Its glossy, heart-shaped leaves and trailing habit make it a useful choice for naturalizing difficult areas under trees, along woodland edges, and in native plant gardens where a durable, textural carpet is desired.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis vine spreads by rhizomes to create a soft green layer that works well as a groundcover, woodland garden component, or understory planting. It can be allowed to scramble over logs, rocks, and low structures for a naturalistic look, or kept contained in borders and native plantings. The foliage provides a quiet backdrop for perennials and woodland wildflowers while tolerating shade and average moisture once established.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Smilax pumila\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Perennial vine \/ groundcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Low, spreading, trailing\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Partial shade to full shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Average, well-drained, humus-rich\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 7 to 10\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Variable; cold-moist stratification can improve results\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Surface sow or barely cover; keep moist and warm after stratification\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 12 to 18 inches\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Native woodland species; allow room to spread\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67663283912840,"sku":"EXGA-945","price":19.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_00e3da44-6b5a-4c33-b7df-2ef463258034.png?v=1791896445","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/5-seeds-sarsaparilla-vine-smilax-pumila-native-groundcover-vine","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
