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?

Deadnettle. It's a great little plant - very attractive and easy to grow.
