Ground Cover Plants

Ground Cover Plants
Ground cover plants are important in the garden.

They reduce valuable moisture loss, prevent soil erosion, and can provide interest all year because bare earth is just not that attractive in the garden.

Ground cover plants are typically evergreen, and low growing, of a spreading habit.
