Native Groundcovers | Volunteer Gardener

Autumn is a good time to evaluate ground cover performance, says host Marty DeHart. She showcases more than a dozen native specimens in a mature residential garden, and considers each one to be worthy of a spot in your garden.

Where do you get these ground covers. I live here in Tennessee and would like to plant some of these ground covers. I have several large trees here and have sandy rocky soil in my garden areas. It would be wonderful to plant native ground covers that would do well.

There is a native plant nursery, Growild, Inc. in Fairview, and they are open by appt. Personally, I buy mail order from Plant Delights Nursery in Raleigh NC. They have an extensive inventory of native and rare plants. www.plantdelights.com

I love seeing the dogwood ground cover or wintergreen. In PA I love seeing them in their nature habitat

This episode was great! I loved all those ground covers! Thank you so much! A great way to cover lots of ground and eliminate wood mulch.
