Ground Cover Care
Ground cover care is very important to ensure long life for the plants. Shortly after planting new ground cover, light mulch should be applied, to keep in moisture and protect the ground cover. Another important part of ground cover care is adequate water. Each breed of ground cover requires differing amounts of water, and some may die if given too much.

Ground cover care goes far beyond watering. Fertilizer will help many ground covers to spread more rapidly and fully. Propagation by dividing ground cover will also aid in the spreading of some of the slower growing ground covers.

Further information about ground cover care can be received from many sources. One good source of information is always the Internet. Many sites are dedicated to the care of gardens, and some sites have areas specific to ground cover care. As with all Internet research however, it is important to ensure that the information is accurate and from a source that is trustworthy.

Another good place to get information about ground cover care is from local garden centers. The local garden centers would be able to offer more tailored information due to their knowledge of growing conditions in the area. Local garden centers may also have brochures or manual on ground cover care in their area.
