I have an area I would like to fill in with a groundcover. I'm tired of weeding it, and hoping, that once the groundcover is established, that weeds won't stand a chance? Maybe I'm wrong! Only ground cover until this point I've had is GRASS!

I am not finding it anywhere locally here YET, have found a few places to order online.

I see it is a slow growing plant, that is ok, and the area it would be planted in is in shade nearly 3/4 of the day. Once established, would I still have to worry about weeds?

Otherwise, can I get some ideas of other possibilities? The reason for planting is WEEDS. The reason I like the wintergreen is because it's a broadleaf evergreen, the shiny leaves, and the fact that it likes shade.

Thanks!
