This listing is for package of 5 bareroot Wintergreen Teaberry plants. These have been collected today and are very fresh and healthy. Harvested fresh from the Allegheny Mountains of PA. Typically, Teaberry turns purple in the fall. Teaberry has many common names - Checkerberry, Boxberry and Mountain Tea. The plants are evergreen with shiny leaves and get pretty bell-shaped flowers in the summer followed by red berries in the fall. They range in height from 3" to 5" high and grow on shallow rhizomes. These were 1" below the soil surface when I dug them up. Teaberry is a great addition to your terrariums, fairy gardens on in a shade garden - giving you pretty white flowers and bright red berries. In a fairy garden, it looks like a little umbrella plant that your fairy will enjoy lounging under! Wintergreen Teaberry is a perennial plant and will spread slowly as new plants appear along the rhizome.
