|
|
I need a groundcover for an area about 4' x 6' that is exposed to full sun all day long.
I would like something that looks good yearround.
Thanks |

Well I did a little research and came up with:
Purple wintercreeper euonymus
Anyone have any experience w/this in the Metroplex in full sun they care to share? Or have a better suggestion? |

| Ponyfoot is the neatest groundcover. It needs no water and is soft and lovely to run your hands over. It just can't take foot traffic. |

Trailing Germander is a pretty, tough evergreen herb that loves full sun and dry conditions. It is considered invasive in kinder climates..but it seems to love Dallas weather..it will spread well if you allow it to. May be a little less tall than vinca (the popular shade ground cover in this area)
I bought my germander at Northaven Gardens in Dallas.
