Hello

try Herman's pride Lamium, or Anne Greenaway. Makes a mat of varigation but
all bulbs can poke thru it. Dry shade would be Epimedium's. A bit more
thatchy in roots but some bulbs can compete just fine. Ajuga is good too.
Makes a great ground cover, has blue flowers in spring and depending on the
variety, very nice foliage. I even have a patch of Lemon verbena that covers
too much ground that bulbs come up thru just fine, and if I don't want it
everywhere, I pull out what I don't want and cook with some, enjoy the smell
and compost the rest.

What are some good groundcovers to plant above tulips, big floppy
crocus, etc? Some of the groundcovers I have tried just didn't work
too well, they were too aggressive. There are a few areas where I
have a lot of bulbs for spring but really there is nothing there after
the bulbs stop blooming.
