Too Lazy to Garden? Plant These 17 Hardy Ground Covers Now This video shares 17 hardy ground covers that can solve the hardest problem areas in your yard without constant watering, replanting, or maintenance. From shade-loving choices like barren strawberry, green-and-gold, wild ginger, woodland phlox, epimedium, and partridgeberry, to sun-tough spreaders like pussytoes, Turkish speedwell, winecups, and sedum, the video highlights plants that can handle dry shade under trees, deep woodland conditions, blazing sun, rocky soil, wet spots, and even the gaps between stepping stones. It also explains what makes each plant useful, where it grows best, and how the right ground cover can replace weeds, support birds and pollinators, improve poor spaces, and turn “dead” areas of the garden into beautiful, low-effort parts of the landscape.
