Irish moss is a charming, moss-like ground cover that forms a soft, bright green cushion. Despite the name, it is not a moss but a flowering plant. In June and July, countless tiny white star-shaped flowers appear above the fine foliage carpet. The plant is ideal between stepping stones, in Japanese gardens, or as a small-scale lawn replacement.

Wild Thyme

Wild thyme is a creeping, aromatic ground cover that forms a dense carpet of pink-purple flowers in summer. The plant grows only a few centimetres tall but spreads gracefully, making it ideal between paving stones, on walls, or as a lawn replacement in dry spots. Every step on the carpet releases a delightful thyme fragrance.

Grape Hyacinth

Grape hyacinths are charming, small bulbs that produce dense clusters of cobalt-blue, bell-shaped flowers in March and April. They release a light, sweet fragrance and naturalise effortlessly, returning in ever-larger groups each year. Ideal for naturalising in lawns, under trees, or as edging along paths.
