Needham's Nursery 12425 Hwy 70 Mt. Juliet, TN (615) 754-7076 -Ground Covers-
Ground covers are a unique part of the Plant Kingdom. Their purpose is to provide a covering on the ground. Many areas in your landscape can benefit from a ground cover planting. For example, you can easily remedy steep slopes or poor, rocky soil just by establishing ground cover in the area. Maybe there is a spot where grass just will not grow under your trees or you simply dislike mowing a particular patch of your lawn, so why not just fill it up with a ground cover? Some add a dazzling touch of color with their seasonal blooms while others give you a nice evergreen covering in the dead of winter. Ground covers form a permanent (We hope) covering over the earth which helps to prevent erosion, and hinder weeds and other vegetative nuisances from taking over a tough area to plant. These omnifarious plants can bear flowers, colored foliage throughout different times of the year or just kind of hang out and cover an unpleasant view throughout the year. |
