Ground Covers

Check-out our selection of groundcovers in flats and 1 gallon containers.

Groundcovers can be used for erosion control, slope stabilization, or for areas where the soil conditions are poor. Consider groundcovers as a lawn replacement in low traffic areas. Groundcovers require less water and maintenance than turf. If there is an area of your lawn where tree growth has shaded the turf and it is not growing well, consider a shade-loving groundcover.

Groundcovers don't have to be just green! They can add a lot of color to your landscape! Some are low mats, some are high enough to serve as borders for your lawn areas.

Convolvulus mauritanicus (Ground Morning Glory) Lavender- blue blooms from Spring ‘till Fall. Low growing, (to 8” tall) dark fuzzy foliage. Grows well in full- sun, handles hot, dry conditions. Fire resistant.

Gazania hybrids (Hybrid Gazania) Large, bright, daisy flowers bloom in the Spring and Summer. Flowers close at night. Evergreen fire- resistant groundcover, grows well in full-sun, tolerates poor soil and dry conditions.

Lantana montevidensis (Trailing Lavender Lantana) Plentiful pink-lavender flowers in the Spring and Summer. Low growing, to 10” tall. Drought tolerant and fire-resistant. Grows in full- sun, handles poor soils and drought conditions. Evergreen foliage turns purple in cold temperatures.

Thymus serphyllum ‘Elfin’ (Elfin Thyme) Small purple-ish pink flowers in Summer. Grows in full-sun, thrives in part-shade. Becomes a flat mat, good between stepping stones.
