Crosswort is one of the best fast-growing and low-spreading, flowering ground covers!
Commonly called Caucasian Crosswort, Creeping Crosswort, and Large-Styled Crosswort, this low-spreading, mat-forming, semi-evergreen ground cover has unique, narrow-leaved, deep-green, aromatic foliage foliage and blooms with globular clusters of fragrant tiny flowers. Crosswort blooms from summer to fall, and its scented flowers attract bees and butterflies.

This very tough late summer through fall blooming perennial has become a worldwide favorite for both its beauty and ease of maintenance. The flowers begin showing a broccoli green color during summer. As the summer progresses, the flowers become pinker until they turn a beautiful russet tone by fall.
Feverfew is an herb. The leaves are used by herbalists to make medicine. It is also a very ornamental perennial.
Feverfew has many uses, including preventing migraine headaches in some people.
Feverfew is also said to be effective for fever, irregular menstrual periods, arthritis, a skin disorder called psoriasis, allergies, asthma, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), dizziness, and nausea and vomiting.
Some people use feverfew for difficulty getting pregnant or fathering a child (infertility). It is also used for “tired blood” (anemia), cancer, common cold, earache, liver disease, prevention of miscarriage, muscular tension, bone disorders, swollen feet, diarrhea, upset stomach and intestinal gas. Feverfew is sometimes applied directly to the gums for toothaches or to the skin to kill germs.
‘Table Mountain’, has 1-2” bright single fuchsia daisy like colored blooms that cover the plant most of the summer.
The foliage is deep green, almost succulent looking, and extremely shiny. ‘Table Mountain’ is an improvement of the old fashioned Delosperma ‘Coperi’.
Expect a plant spread of 18” and a height of 2-3”. Best suited for a sunny area, with some afternoon shade, with well- drained soil. It prefers dry and sandy soil and does not like wet soil, especially in the winter.
Hot conditions keep the flowers blooming most of the summer, and it requires little to no care.
This will look great used as a ground cover in a rock garden, in front of a perennial border, and as an erosion prevention on sloped grounds.
Can also be used on hard to grow areas in the sun garden as they have little water requirements, yet fill in very quickly.
Dark as night foliage with gorgeously scalloped leaves. A knock-out in patio pots, combos, and as a striking accent with white, gold or light colored plants. Great groundcover

Popular as a dependable evergreen ground cover for shade and sun in most areas of the USA. ‘Caitlin’s Giant’ is a larger leafed ajuga with purple and green foliage with a ruffled edge. It is more tolerant of soil types than normal ajuga, and is actually quite drought tolerant once established. It performs equally well in sun or shade, and is a vigorous spreader, choking out weeds. Blue flower spikes appear in April through May. The plant grows 8- 10 inches tall and spreads up to 3 feet. It makes an excellent groundcover in shade or sun, but will not tolerate foot traffic well. Use stepping stones for pathways. Flowers are attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds.
Excellent ground cover does best in partial to full shade. Reaching a height of 3-4 inches, this is right at home as a base plant for the shade garden plants or shrubs. Blue-violet flowers in spring on 4-6″ spikes are a favorite of bees. Forms a compact, dense mat that prevents weeds from poking through once established. 2-3″ oval shaped leaves form tight rosettes. Bronze foliage is most vivid in cooler temperatures of spring and fall. Stays ‘evergreen’ until temps drop below 15 degrees. Foliage may show more green than bronze in very dense shade or during very hot, humid times. Spreads by stolons, but is not invasive.
