English Ivy

The English Ivy, `Hedera helix,' is a strong growing, trailing variety that is perfect for baskets, containers or use as a groundcover. It is a classic variety from the Fall Magic collection, and produces fan-shaped, silvery green foliage. Its dense growth and abundant leaves will form a thick canopy just above the ground, to prevent sunlight from reaching other plants. Commonly used by homeowners, horticulturalists and landscaping contractors, the English Ivy is perfect anywhere a fast growing, low maintenance evergreen cover is desired.

Orchid Frost Lamium

The Lamium Orchid Frost, `Lamium maculatum,' has beautiful oval shaped foliage that is bluish green in color with silvery edges. The short, spiked clear pale pink flowers make it a very attractive ground cover. It has a plant height of six inches and a spread of up to two feet. The flowers bloom from May to July. Lamuim should be grown in hanging baskets, mixed containers, trailing over walls or as an edger. Its spread must be controlled. This plant looks great among hostas, ferns, bulbs and wildflowers.

Amethyst Myst Coral Bells

The Heuchera Amethyst Myst, `Heuchera x Amethys Myst,' is also known as the Coral Bell or Alumroot. This plant has unique, deep purple foliage that is dusted with silver, unlike the other burgundies of its family. During the spring, its light pink flowers will appear, remaining into the summer. However, these plants are more known for their lovely foliage than their blooms. They look especially great in borders, woodland edges, rock gardens or in mass to form a ground cover. This plant is perfect for a beginning gardener.
