What zone do you live in and is the area sun or shade?

And what height is preferred?

If you are zones 2 through 7, you might consider potentilla which comes in several colors. Height is about 24" which might be taller than you want.

Here is a link that might be useful: potentilla

potentilla looks nice, but too tall
can you think of something smaller ?
I'm in zone 6 NY
thanks again

Phlox stolonifera and daylilly Happy Returns (18") or Eeny Weenie (10-12").

How about iberis sempervirens?

It's low growing, like sun or partial shade, is evergreen and has white flowers in the spring.

Q

I think Ron 6 left without saying 'goodbye!'

He will be back.

I was going to suggest liatris but I think I like the iberis better. Gotta watch the height of both of those, since different species have different heights.

sorry for not replying sooner , i was away from computer
thanks for those good ideas , i'll check them out and choose one.
you all have a good weekend
