Rubus calycinoides
Creeping Raspberry
Creeping Raspberry (Rubus rolfei, also known as Rubus calycinoides) forms a low evergreen mat. Small, lobed dark green leaves create a crinkled texture over the creeping stems.
White flowers are followed by small fruit that can be yellow through red. Use it as a spreading cover where its foliage can fill gaps and soften the edge of a planting.
Grow in sun or partial shade and allow the stems room to spread.
