groundcover lamiastrum care

I love the lamiastrum that I planted -- the white detailing on the leaves look great in my very shady, green yard. I have it spilling over rock walls and also as a groundcover under large trees.

But it's not as thick as groundcover as I would like -- there's plenty of bare earth showing. What would help to thicken it up? Would shearing help, and when would I do it? Thanks!

I say give it a season to thicken up......and keep well watered.
Mine thins out after blooming and then thickens up later in the season.
