| I am going to plant society garlic and statice with my iceberg roses, but do not know what to plant as a ground cover in front of (or around) them. Also, the area is along a driveway that is very slightly hilly and the roses are against a retaining wall. The society garlic and statice will be next to and in front of the roses. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. |

| Over here in the East, we're in blackspot and other fungal disease heaven. We need to keep all the fallen rose leaves cleaned up, so that the diseases can't overwinter in the soil. Therefore, I don't use a groundcover around my roses. |

| Well, I could just mulch around them and then put in a ground cover in front of the mulch. Do you or anyone else have a suggestion of what would look nice if you did not have the disease problem (as we do not in CA)? Thanks in advance. |
