Go to google and do a search on creeping thyme. There are many different
colors and scents to use. It is a low growing perennial that requires
little to no maintenance and can be walked on without damage. I think
you'll really like the flowers too. They are very tiny and old fashioned
looking.

Good luck.

Hi folks -- I just put down some paving stones in my garden yesterday to
make a pathway for ease of weeding, etc. I'd like to plant some very
low-growing ground cover as a fill in between the stones to give it that
old
English garden path feel. I live in the Washington DC area, zone 7; the
area in which I placed the stones gets full sun for a big part of the day
from late summer to early fall, and very little full sun in spring and
fall.
Something with small flowers would be nice... any ideas for me? Thanks in
advance!
