Asarum caudatum

Wild Ginger is an evergreen understory plant that eventually forms a carpet of lustrous, aromatic leaves and fascinating, furtive flowers that are well-worth getting down on your hands and knees to investigate. Peek under the glossy, heart-shaped leaves in late spring and you’ll be fantastically rewarded with intricate burgundy blooms that are equal parts whimsical and wicked. 

Like most evergreen groundcovers, Wild Ginger holds moisture and protects both the soil and forest floor dwellers like arthropods, which in turn support birds and amphibians. The flowers attract and are pollinated by ground beetles. 

  • Plant type/canopy layer: evergreen perennial herbaceous plant
  • Size at maturity: 6" tall, 3' wide
  • Light requirements: full shade, part-sun/part-shade
  • Moisture requirements: moist soil
  • Growth rate/ease: moderate to slow growth rate, moderately difficult to grow
  • Bloom time: April - August
  • Wildlife support: supports beneficial insects/pest eating insects, cover for amphibians, arthropods and other forest floor dwellers
  • Native habitat/range: Common throughout western OR, WA and northern CA - north to British Columbia, northeast to MT; in mesic or wet places of conifer forests or rocky areas up to 1800 meters. Portland Plant List - yes.
  • Special features & uses: evergreen, groundcover, edible (note: though roots are edible - it is not related to culinary ginger and consumption of large amounts could be toxic), medicinal

Gardening with Wild Ginger: Wild Ginger prefers garden areas that are shady, moist, slightly acidic, with adequate organic matter such as leaf litter. It will particularly thrive when planted with established native trees like Douglas-fir, western hemlock, grand fir, and western redcedar, as well as deciduous small trees and shrubs such as red alder, vine maple, and native hazelnut. Other associates include sword fern, deer fern, goatsbeard, fairybells, and trillium.

As with all native plants, but particularly for Wild Ginger, plant it in fall for best success and keep it hydrated with deep, infrequent waterings for the first couple of summers, especially if your site lacks many trees or is subjected to heat. When happy, it will creep by rhizome into a lush low groundcover. Since it is not fast growing, plant in multiples and space them a couple feet apart to fill an area of your woodland garden.

Nice feel
Color: Matte Silver
Feels good in the hand. It has some weight to it. I like the fact you can change out the blades. Way better than the cheap plastic disposable razors.

Great Exfoliator
Color: Matte Gold
Beautiful gold color, nice ergonomic feel and weight. I had been using disposable plastic razors, and thought I would take a chance on this more professional styled one for dermal exfoliation as well as my eyebrows. This razor is sharp, but it is easily managed when start gently, you don’t slide it in a cutting fashion, just use it on taught skin, and lift it up for repositioning. When I did my brows, there was no evidence of hair growth left behind. AWESOME! This razor comes with spare blades as well as replacement parts if needed. It has a rubbery silicone cap to slide on and off easily, but not fall off creating danger. The razor has a small accessible prong to easily slide it out for replacement. It comes nicely packed with detailed instructions. I highly recommend this for anyone wanting to take a decade off of their skin. I would recommend a professional if you have any shakiness though.
