Ground covers consist of low-growing, spreading plants that are dependable, hardworking and require little maintenance. These drought-tolerant plants are also functional, serving as a living carpet across the ground to help stop weeds and erosion. Ground covers thrive in dry conditions, so they complement troubled areas in a landscape, border or a hillside. They are the bee’s knees for areas where grass won’t grow. Better still, flowering ground covers provide color and attractive foliage, adding interest to a garden.

Some ground covers have a fast, aggressive spread, like the Sedum Lime Zinger or Fire Spinner Ice Plant. Many ground covers can be used to drape over patio containers or window boxes. Clumping, slow-spreading plants — like the Black Scallop Ajuga — are lovely when grown in large groups. Black Scallop is a hardy ajuga low-growing plant with a striking purple color that almost looks black.

Some ground covers can tough it out in difficult areas, often competing with trees or shady slopes. Lirope can tolerate sun or shade, is tolerant to heat, humidity, and drought, and withstands foot traffic. When choosing ground covers for your property, consider the area’s growing conditions.
