GROUND COVERS

Cover the ground with a beautiful carpet of foliage, thereby reducing erosion and providing a mat that inhibits weeds. We offer a great selection of ground covers that are edible. Each is available in a 4" pot. If you order them in multiples of 6, we give a $4 discount for each "6 pack."

Also look up Lingonberries, cranberries, strawberries and blueberries which are listed in their own sections but make great edible ground covers. 

USEFUL FACTS

PLANT SPACING:  Space 1 foot apart to make a quick mat. It's cheaper to space them two feet apart but it will take a year or two longer to fill in.

HOW TO GROW

SOIL REQUIREMENTS:  Each differs however all are shallow rooted and require a well prepared bed free of weeds to get off to a good start.

CULTURAL REQUIREMENTS:  They need a rich friable soil to successfully get started. Once they have formed a mat, you can, with a shovel, remove part of the mat and extend your patch.
