I can't even tolerate looking at ivy or holly because they were so invasive and difficult both to "manage" or to "dig out completely" in the area I used to live in (mid coastal Calif.). Just discovered your podcast and am looking forward to seeing them all. I especially like the quality of your voice and that you type the name of plants you are featuring.

@@susanlowell4759 Yes! I had nightmares from ivy and wintercreeper smothering the trees and bushes in the garden of a newly purchased house. They seriously looked like snakes, they were so huge. 😳 Once I’d hacked it all out I never wanted to see them again. Some really lovely options here. 💗

This is a beautiful video. I love that you enjoy so many different types of ground covers. I think it really makes a yard eye candy. Layered gardens are so intricate and interesting. I am zone 6A and I have discovered woolly thyme, black’s platt, sedum angelina, creeping thyme (though mine is a darker shade of green than yours), and sempervivums (hen and chicks) as the most amazing ground covers. I weirdly found sedum sarmentosum in the actual forest and transplanted a handful to my yard to see what would happen. It’s so happy there!

Thank you for such a great informative video on a much needed area of gardening to learn. Years ago, i stumbled upon a species of hardy geranium that was very tiny, but formed a low spreading mounds similar to you sedum. i wish i could find it again ! On a side note, to give you an idea of why "Creeping Jenny" doesn't like dry conditions or CAN'T, this plant is also sold as a freshwater aquatic for fish tanks, where it grows quite well and rather happily !

Hon, I've watched a million videos on ground covers. I live in Chicago but I'm moving back to SC Coast. I'm a CEO but live gardening. It was my Grandmamas passion and I guess I got her gift. Anyway, since living here I've got into gardening heavily. FINALLY moving back to all warm weather. Looking for some good groundcovers for a 3 acre yard. With a big farm pond. Sorry all my videos are comedy. ANYWAY... THIS video has been the best ground cover video I've watched. I Also love Ajuga. I have the different varieties. I'm takin them all to SC. YOUR GARDEN IS BEAUTIFUL I'm also running a ground cover test... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO ... Take Care God Bless BTW...My creepin jenny starved out some Dahlias last year. But it's one of my favorite ans even comes back after Chicago winters. Rockford, IL exactly

I enjoyed the video. One thing I would note is that Ivy can produce berries. Those berries contain seed. birds can eat those berries and spread them around. So controlling Ivy is not merely a matter of controlling the growth of the plant.
@TiggerTellsTales
@TiggerTellsTales Жыл бұрын
Thank you for sharing! Agreed but that goes for every plant that produces seeds including the ones in your lawn. It would be impossible to control every plant that way and I choose not to. My ivy is a haven for chipmunks, snakes, spiders and thousands of insects. I refuse to vilify it like so many others. It does no damage to my trees and I control it going into the canopy which is quite easy. It’s spread in the wild happened before I was born.
@planttasticcookinggardenin1561
@planttasticcookinggardenin1561 7 ай бұрын
Yeah and that’s pretty much for every plant. I have no desire to control it if a bird wants to eat it. That’s nature…humans spend too much time controlling nature. 🙏I love ivy, it gives harbor to sooo many insects, chipmunks, etc. so I won’t be joining the haters club because it’s successful.

I have some Hardy Plumbago (Ceratostigma Plumbaginoides). It was already here before we moved in. I thought it was a weed until one day I saw some beautiful cobalt blue flowers and decided to let it stay. Only just figured out what it was a year or two ago. For me it is a slow spreader, behaves pretty well, doesn't seem to choke others out. I'm in zone 8b Texas.

I have creeping thyme in zone 6b Boston. I love it! When I moved into my house ten yrs ago the side of my garage was just weeds, I couldn't plant anything because of tree roots from neighbors yard. I got 50 plugs of thyme and was able to plant it. It covered the whole area within the first season. I dug up pieces and put in the front of my house around an ornamental tree, i put a big rock where I wanted it to stop. I just trim as it goes over the rock. Over time there are two volunteer rose of Sharon's and a milkweed growing in the the thyme on the side of the garage(the tree roots are breaking down because the neighbors cut the trees so I can dig now) they all are thriving. It's a fast spreader but not difficult to pull. I have ajuga too that's not a problem either. Thanks for showing all these grounds covers because I need more, so sick of weeding in some of beds. The bees and butterflies love the thyme.

I just love your garden/yard! So beautiful, interesting and natural. I found that my house has some of these that I have taken advantage of especially the little blue star plant, and the sedum. I have a disdain for the little violet rhizomes that I cannot keep out of my vegetable garden in zone 7b, but they are sweet and woodland looking. They are overtaking my backyard though. I think ground covered are my mom’s answer to not being able to take care of her flower garden. It gets overgrown with weeds and trees every summer and she gets so depressed about it.

I love the way you use rock in your landscaping. Great video. My two favorite ground covers for sun are ice plant Fire Spinner and woolly thyme. Pink Chintz thyme, for me, looks too ratty after it blooms in the spring, and the weeds and grass take it over. Dragon's blood sedum is another one of my favorite ground covers as well. I battle with bind weed, and my ice plant and Dragon's blood sedum have solved the problem in one area of my back yard. Another one of my favorite ground covers is Partridge Feather. It grows in such a tidy clump, and the leaves are so adorable.

Very nice video. Love your ground covers. I’m just trying a few out. I have a large area with what I believe is creeping Myrtle. It’s a nightmare, grows over everything, bushes, pathway and is spreading fast. It came with the house. I’m now mowing over it but that probably won’t kill it.

Our video on poison ivy worked to irradicate it by suffocating it with landscape fabric. It only took a days work for a 20 x 40 foot garden area with lots of plants.

Creeping jenny or moneywort will go everywhere. If unchecked it ends up in your grass, etc. I do use it in planters and hanging baskets as a fill in vine. And it will naturalize any area you put it in.

It has been my experience that creeping jenny is a fussy plant. It's either really happy (like in my woodland garden and frog pond) or it's miserable and sits in one spot like a sloth (my front round bed lol). My daughter planted 2 entire flats of it in a shady, moist area (zone 7) in her back yard for erosion control. It should of loved those conditions. Nope, most of it died and what is still alive has been sitting in one spot looking sad. You can never tell. Plants like what they like, and what grows "anywhere" for one gardener is a difficult to grow plant for another.

Super helpful, thanks! I’m getting rid of all of the sod in my backyard (zone 5b but I think we’ve been reclassified as 6a now). I’m deciding between a moss or a creeping thyme (needs to be a steppable). I also want something very fast growing and dense enough to suppresses weeds so sounds like thyme is better. I love Angelina sedum, ajuga and Veronica speedwell but I want something that can be walked on. Maybe I can plant some little patches here and there for visual texture, though. Love how yours look like a multi-coloured tapestry or patchwork quilt! Creeping phlox isn’t taking for me though, sadly (I have a ton planted in different garden beds as edging ground cover and most of it’s dying :-(

Glad it was helpful! We've been slowing removing sod from our property for over 20 years now. It's too high maintenance and requires too many chemicals to look good. Best of luck to you!

Sorry for some reason youtube cut off half of your comment. I walk on my low growing ajuga all of the time and it doesn't bother it at all. If you find the really mat-forming ones, they take high foot traffic. I've heard that other people have a tough time getting creeping phlox to grow. I find that it has to have excellent drainage or it won't budge. It's also not a really competitive plant.

Thank you, we are so glad that it was helpful! We have found that hostas do the best when they are in the proper light. They definitely need more shade, at least part shade. They also thrive with a lot of moisture and two inches of compost being added in the Spring with two inches of mulch on top. Hopefully this helps! - Amber
