We all have parts of the garden that are difficult to manage, whether it is a neglected corner behind the shed or a stony patch that you can't quite figure out how to plant. This is where low plants—shrubs, conifers, perennials, and roses with a spreading or creeping habit—come into their own, eventually providing a permanent carpet that will help to suppress weeds.
Learn more about choosing and planting plants in our advice section and find even more information in our resources section.
Bareroot groundcover plants are only available from mid-November to March. You can learn more about the differences between bareroot and potted plants in our advice section.
Potted groundcover plants are available all year, but the best selection, and the best time to plant, is from spring (March to May) through to autumn (September to October).
