Vigorous Vine or Ground Cover for Pot in Shade

17 years ago

I'm looking for a Vigorous Vine or Ground Cover for a Pot in the Shade (under a cedar tree). I need it to overflow down the sides of the pot and fill in a 10sqft section of ground. I've heard of Creeping Jenny, but I don't want it to creep. I want it to fill the spot quickly.

Any recommendations are welcome.

Thanks,

Brian
