Or perhaps you need something that flourishes in full sun and can withstand drought spells. Looking for something colorful that blooms in late spring or early summer? Consider creeping thyme, which is great for attracting pollinators. If you want to implement the perennials in your own space, there's a variety of options to choose from. According to Kelly Funk, president of Park Seed, the perennials are 'tough, low-growing, and at times mat-forming,' meaning they can 'choke out weeds, control erosion on slopes, fill in areas where grass just won't grow, and protect the roots of neighboring plants from summer's heat and winter's cold.' No matter what your landscape needs, ground cover plants typically offer a quick fix and their cool colors and tantalizing textures mean they look great while doing so.

Not only are ground cover varieties an ideal way to break up stretches of grass, they are also major problem solvers for other gardening woes. The low growing perennials are the perfect option if you want a space that looks full without requiring much maintenance. Ground Ivy grows to a height of around 1 inch and quickly forms a low carpet across a garden or lawn, allowing it to scatter its leaves and stems. But if the thought of having yet another thing in your yard to maintain fills you with dread, there's an easy solution: ground cover plants. Adding a bush here or a bed of flowers there adds personality and intrigue to your landscape. Even if your property is covered with yards of luscious green grass, most outdoor spaces benefit from some dimension.
