Ground Covers

Q: What would you recommend as a fast growing ground cover in sunny and shady areas?
A: For shade, I like Lenten rose or mondo grass. For sun, spreading juniper and purple euonymus are hard to beat. For more groundcover options, visit http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/groundcover-for-bank/.
