Jeepers Creepers Groundcover
Fill in those pesky bare spots of your yard quickly and beautifully with Jeepers Creepers groundcovers

Jeepers Creepers are durable perennial plants. Their low spreading habit makes them ideal for use as a groundcover, lawn substitute, pathway or edging plant. Some types will even tolerate foot traffic!

Groundcover

With colorful flowers or leaves, these plants offer unique design possibilities. Plants will quickly fill in awkward corners. Certain types offer an easy solution for shady sites or baking hot sun. By covering the ground in a dense mat, mulching requirements are reduced.

Eco-friendly Lawn Substitute

Replace thirsty lawns with an attractive and drought-tolerant living carpet! A less demanding lawn alternative allows you to reduce your water, fertilizer, pesticide and mowing requirements. Jeepers Creepers are a particularly good solution for steep slopes.

Pathway & Patio Plants

Add an attractive finishing touch to highlight your creative stone or woodwork. Fragrant-leaved selections will release a pleasant scent when walked on.
