I live in Ohio and have several shaded areas where I would like to put
in ground cover and I just wanted to make sure I've thought of them all.
So far I have English Ivy and Periwinkle.

Other groundcovers for shady areas include carpet bugle, mock strawberry,
plumbago, sweet woodruff, woodbine, wintercreeper euonymous and dead nettle
(lamium 'White Nancy' is my favorite).
