listing of top-performing groundcovers that we incorporate into
the the landscape designs
provided to our clients. These groundcovers have been selected
based upon outstanding qualities and overall performance in
Zone 8 of the Southeast. Groundcovers
are useful to fill in the gaps; tying all of the other plants
and trees in the landscape together, and as erosion control
on slopes or embankments. As groundcovers fill in the gaps there
is less need for mulch. |
