A note about these ground covers: that pretty pink plant, Mexican Evening Primrose (Oenothera berlandieri) is very invasive and should never be used by the faint of heart... it is gorgeous but wants to take over the world. My client is an experienced gardener and we discussed the downside of this plant and still opted to go ahead - but make no mistake; it requires constant maintenance (spraying with RoundUp where you do not want it). Consider yourself warned. On the other hand, the Blue Morning Glory (Convolvulus sabatius) is very well behaved, one happy plant can spread up to 7ft, but remains not taller than 6 inches, easy to maintain.
n the right foreground is Salvia chamaedryoides w/ silver foliage and cobalt blue flowers, the purple is Verbena rigida, the coral-pink blossoms on the right by the Verbena is Yarrow: Achillea millefolium, the light pale pink blossoms on the lower left are Oenothera berlandieri: Mexican Evening Primrose; note this plant is extremely invasive - I do not recommend it in a mixed planting. All of these plants require very little water or maintenance once established.
