Best low-maintenance groundcover for gardeners seeking long-lasting, deer-resistant color.
This is the ultimate set-it-and-forget-it perennial for gardeners who want constant color without the constant maintenance. While it lacks the dramatic height of showier shrubs, its relentless bloom cycle and deer-resistant, near-evergreen foliage make it the most reliable groundcover you can plant.
