What Ground Cover to Plant Near Clematis?
Comments (13)the soapwort I have, I purchased as a small plant in a nursery. It does indeed spread very quickly. though it does like the sun and will "reach" towards it if it's not getting enough. it is a profuse flowering ground cover. it is literally covered with gorgeous, small, candy pink flowers. and like I said, when blooms are done it stays green and lush. it is almost September and my sweet autumn is blooming out and the soapwort is thick and green. there may be other choices that bloom longer though. I have never tried to separate it, so I don't know how that would work. sorry...See Morewill ground cover kill my perennials, hydrangea, rose bush & clematis
Comments (3)it depends on the type of groundcover. Some are very aggressive and will spread rampantly - others are very tame :-) I can't see clearly what it is you are growing but most mat-like groundcovers are not the slightest bit aggressive. I wouldn't worry. They are also less effective at controlling weeds. And any groundcover will do nothing for the horsetails (which I don't see in your photos, btw). Nothing will stop them....See Morea clematis as ground cover?
Comments (5)Clematis Carnaby should work for you. I have this clematis. I have it in a planter. Although it has a trellis to climb on, it rarely latches on to the trellis. Instead it rambles from the sides of the pot. See the picture. So in my opinion it should work for you....See Morepairing 2 clematis for ground cover
