GROUND COVERS and VINES 
Ground covers add the finishing touches to your garden. They 
can be used under trees where the shade is too deep for grass, 
between shrubs and lawn, in front of low evergreens. There are 
many types—some usually considered as vines are even more 
effective when grown in low, billowy masses. Vines, as such, 
take but a little space and contribute a wealth of charm.
