Rubus calycinoides (syn. rolfei)
It’s not glamourous but it sure is useful. Handsome deep green, quilted leaves with a sand-papery texture are held along reaching, groundcovering stems that will root into the ground as they travel. Forms a dense, weed-suppressing groundcover from sun to shade. Foliage can turn russet red in fall. Occasional white flowers and amber berries resembling a yellow raspberry.
