Evergreen 2-3' groundcover for sun - nonaggressive

18 years ago

I've eliminated my lawn altogether.

In the sunny area of my garden I would like a groundcover, green and also evergreen that will grow between everything I have planted there and knit everything together. I'd like it to be like grass but no be grass.

Right now in the back I'm using veronica peduncularis 'Georgia Blue.' At six inches high, I think it will be a little too tall to continue in the front of the border where I have planted low-growing heathers.

Oops!

I meant 2-3 INCH groundcover!
