Growing Tips
Fast growing plants spread by underground stems to create a great groundcover. Divide clumps when plantings get over crowded. Remove spent flowers, shears or even mowing on a high setting can quickly take care of the old flowers.
A great green ground cover for a shade garden. Mint Chip is a small green leaf Ajuga that works well in shady garden paths. Fast growing, dense habit will choke out weeds.
A tall grower that¹s great in beds, borders, and large containers. The mounding, self-branching habit makes Oriental Limelight an ideal companion for many flowering plants. Variegated lemon yellow and green foliage.
Zone 3-11
Full sun
18-36″ tall and wide
Best grown in a container or a confined space as this tends to spread rapidly.
Unusual, spreading miniature chocolate chip-sized foliage with shimmering lacy blue flowers. A true dwarf variety. Excellent ground cover and right at home trailing over the edge of containers.
Zones 3-11
Full sun to partial shade
An upright Sedum that is more compact and shorter than Autumn Joy. As a plus, if doesn’t “fall apart” in the center.
Forms a low, rounded mound in spring, growing to just under 1’ tall by summer. Light green leaves become covered in a dome of bubblegum pink flowers followed by pretty seed heads.
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.
