What is a flowering ground cover?
Flowering ground covers are low-growing plants that cover the ground with their dense growth while simultaneously producing beautiful flowers. These plants are ideal for suppressing weed growth, preventing erosion, and adding a decorative touch to the garden. Well-known flowering ground covers include, for example, Geranium 'Rozanne', Vinca minor, and Ajuga reptans. Due to their compact growth habit, they form a natural carpet that retains soil moisture and ensures a low-maintenance garden.
Flowering ground covers are hardy
Hardy flowering ground covers are ideal for the Dutch climate. They survive cold winters and bloom again every spring. Examples of these are Vinca minor, which remains green even in winter, and Helleborus, which blooms as early as late winter. These plants are perfect for borders, shady spots, and under trees, where they form a natural ground cover and add structure to the garden, even in the coldest months.
Low-growing flowering ground covers
Low-growing ground covers remain compact and form a dense mat of greenery and flowers. Popular varieties include Campanula poscharskyana, which provides a fairytale-like appearance with its star-shaped flowers, and Phlox subulata, which creates a sea of color in spring. These plants are perfect for rock gardens, borders along paths, and as additions to flower beds.
Long-blooming ground covers
For a long-blooming garden, there are ground covers that produce flowers for months. Geranium 'Rozanne' is an excellent choice, with its continuous bloom from May to October. Salvia nemorosa and Lavandula angustifolia are also beautiful options that not only bloom for a long time but also attract bees and butterflies. By combining these plants, you can enjoy a colorful garden for most of the year.
Yellow-flowering ground cover
Yellow-flowering ground covers bring a sunny and cheerful look to the garden. Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea', better known as 'Golden Mint', has bright yellow flowers and graceful creeping growth. Hypericum calycinum, also known as St. John's wort, offers large, golden-yellow flowers that bloom for a long time. These plants are ideal for brightening up borders and shady spots with their radiant colors.
White-flowering ground cover
White-flowering ground covers provide a fresh and elegant look in the garden. Vinca minor 'Alba' is a popular choice, with its white flowers and evergreen leaves. Ceratostigma plumbaginoides also offers beautiful white flowers in the summer. These plants are ideal for shady spots or as a contrast to colorful planting.
Ground Cover Species
There are many types of ground covers suitable for various garden situations, such as sun, shade, evergreen, or fast-growing. Below you will find an overview of popular categories:
