Ground cover perennials are perfect for filling gaps, suppressing weeds and creating a soft, natural carpet of foliage and flowers. These hardy, low growing plants spread gently over time, making them ideal for edging paths, covering bare soil and softening hard landscaping.
Excellent choices include Erigeron karvinskianus, which flowers for months, and Geranium Rozanne, which provides masses of colour while spreading neatly. Lamium White Nancy, Ajuga Black Scallop and Vinca minor thrive in shade, while sun lovers like Thyme Elfin, Sedum spurium and Armeria Maritima create dense, low mounds.
Ground cover perennials combine beautifully with Heuchera, Hosta, Nepeta and small Ornamental grasses, helping to create a full, layered border with minimal maintenance.
