Southwestern Ohio.



I've had
peonies planted along the fence line, but they've all died underneath
the tree, though they grow to either side of it. I try to plant grass
there every spring but so far it's not made it until fall.

Have you tried one of the lamiums? They're perennials, ground cover,
some with multi-colored foilage, small but numerous blooms, and they'll
grow most anywhere. They do fine under our trees in Zone 5.



No, in fact I've never heard of it. Does it have a common name?
