| Butchers broom (Ruscus aculeatus). A very hardy shade plant for pots. |

| Thanks! Should I keep it or toss it out? How would I even get it to root and is it possible? |

| After help from Adam's post, I did some web research. It seems that Ruscus hypophyllum is used in the flower trade. It is a member of the lily family. Propagation is typically done by division of the underground rhizome. It does well in shade. Nice and green! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ruscus hypophyllum
