Wintergreen

Description
Eat, drink and grow berries! Wintergreen's fruit may be eaten fresh, while the evergreen’s leaves make for a flavorful tea. In the spring, the native ground cover produces white, lily of the valley type flowers followed by red berries when fall rolls around. Gaultheria procumbens may be used as a houseplant, but is a hardy perennial that thrives in zones 3-8. We recommend transplanting to the garden outdoors after the weather warms in spring.
