My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Ground Cover

Ground Cover Recommendation

13 years ago

I have a garden that has a lot of clay and probably gets 75% sun

Looking for perennial ground cover seeds that can provide the following:
- no more than 6" height
- variety of color
- variety of types of plants
- spring/summer blooming

Hopefully there is a package "mix" of variety available to meet my needs
