Gaining Ground Garden Design – Tough Plants for tough places

Helpful Hints

• Add ground cover shrubs such as Dwarf Mountain Pine and Juniper or upright evergreens to provide winter interest
• Plant Sedum, Thymus and Delosperma on rock ledges or above retaining walls to crate a cascading effect.
• Create a winding path of Creeping Thyme through your ground cover garden to provide a maintenance entry without sacificing valuable planting space
• If you live in a Zone 5 area, substitue the Zone 6 Santolina with Artemisia schmidtiana ‘Silver Mound’.
