Groundcovers spread low to cover bare beds, slopes, and borders, which can reduce weeds and soften hard edges.
It depends on the spread of the plant and the area you are filling; closer spacing covers faster.
In the right spot, low groundcovers can fill areas where turf struggles, such as shade or hard-to-mow slopes.
It depends on the plant and spacing. Closer spacing and steady water during establishment help them knit together faster, often within a season or two.
Fall and spring are ideal in Zone 9b so plants root in before summer heat, though container plants can go in year round with regular water.
Sun-tolerant groundcovers for Zone 9b include sunshine mimosa, perennial peanut, beach sunflower, and dwarf juniper. They spread to cover beds and slopes while handling our heat and sandy soil.
