Hi, Myrna --
Don't you think he needs some Creeping Charlie?
I help a lady with vast perennial gardens who uses it as a ground cover in 
her Shrub Rose bed.  There is also a variety developed, I think, that has 
variegated leaves.  Looks lovely but...		;-)
	She also uses wild violets as a ground cover in another area.
Sounds like Craig is going 2B an interesting addition to our List.
	BTW, I was noticing this afternoon that Myosotis is lovely where it 
has self-sown among the blooming DamdyLions.  IMHO, of course.
	Best Wishes to you all --
