Goldilocks Creeping Jenny is a low-growing perennial ground cover that is prized for its bright, chartreuse-green foliage. It is a fast-growing plant that spreads quickly, forming a dense mat of leaves that can help suppress weed growth. In addition to its attractive foliage, it also produces small, bright yellow flowers in late spring or early summer, adding a pop of colour to the landscape. Goldilocks Creeping Jenny is an excellent choice for use as a ground cover, in rock gardens, or as a trailing plant in containers.
Care Guide
Watering: Goldilocks Creeping Jenny requires consistently moist soil, but not waterlogged.
Water the plant thoroughly once or twice a week, depending on the weather and soil conditions. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely
Maintenance: Prune back any stems that have become too long or are showing signs of damage or disease. Additionally, pinch back the tips of the stems to encourage lateral branching and fuller growth.
Pruning: In late fall or early spring, cut back the entire plant to a few inches above the ground to promote new growth and prevent winter damage.
(Optional):Fertilizer: Goldilocks Creeping Jenny is a low-maintenance plant that does not require regular fertilization. However, you can apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring to provide some extra nutrients.
