It's perfect for encircling pools and ponds, naturalizing in woodland gardens, and along pathways or streams. Its trailing nature also makes it a striking "spiller" in hanging baskets or containers.
Creeping Jenny is a hardy plant that thrives in partially sunny locations with moist, humus-rich, well-draining soil. It's adaptable to a variety of soil types, is drought tolerant, deer resistant, and generally free from pests and diseases.
