Planting groundcover plants is a great way to forget about weeding your garden for the entire season.
An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh talks about three such plants.
Pueraria lobata
Many people know this plant as a medicinal plant and consider it too heat-loving for our latitudes.
However, Pueraria lobata can be planted as a ground cover.
The plant will quickly take over the area and will not give weeds even a chance to break through its large velvety leaves.
Bryozoan subulate
Forms dense cushions resembling moss and is an excellent weed suppressor.
Prefers rocky soils, but will also grow in less fertile, damp areas. Withstands trampling well.
Duchesnea indica
An unpretentious plant that produces tendrils up to 1 m in diameter per season.
An excellent option if you need to urgently improve an unattractive area.
Tolerates shade well and can be used to turf tree trunks.
