Covering Ground by Barbara W Ellis

Covering Ground by Barbara W Ellis

More than just broad expanses of a single plant, ground covers can bring a fresh look to dozens of landscaping challenges and opportunities. Working with the theory that ground covers should be hardworking as well as beautiful, this work provides readers with low-maintenance, creative ideas.

She is the author of many gardening books, including The Veggie Gardener’s Answer Book, Deckscaping, Shady Retreats, and Covering Ground.
