Re: garden question

When I first saw this, I wondered if she had considered heaths & heathers. They come in 2 inches to several feet tall, and enjoy an occasional trim if needed.

Judy B I have that first vinca on Chris's list. It grew slowly when I had it in a lot of high shade. Last year it crept out into the sun and is quickly moving beyond where I want it. Let me know if I can send her some starts. Like a bushel or two ,>

Thanks so much, Chris. I have forwarded this to her. It should be very useful

Hi Auralie,
I'm catching up on old messages and saw this.
What constitutes a groundcover to her? If 2' is OK, Comptonia peregrina
is a great plant and fixes nitrogen to boot. Other options include the ubiquitous Vinca.
There are a LOT of choices:

Also, what about Cotoneaster, like 'Mooncreeper'?

A perennial possibility for shade is Woolly yarrow

or 'Angelina' sedum:

I'm linking to the nursery pages because they have photos and
descriptions that might help, not to tell you to order from me. > :)
