Ground cover questions
I need some dvice on ground covers. Last year I planted some all
purpose grass in back of my apartment. I chose a version that was supposed to be durable because all of the grass in that area was dead though all around it the grass was green (the area is seperated from the rest of the lot by a retaning wall and the back of the apartment building). However, the grass still died by mid-summer. I don't own the lot but the landlord doesn't want to spend the moey re-seeding it. The area in question is only about 7'x7' and is pretty much inaccessible to lawnmowers. What I need is a ground cover that is durable, low-maintanance, doesn't grow too high, looks better than a patch of dirt, and is healthy and tasty to bunnies (I have two). What I was thinking of was clover. Does anyone have any other suggestions? If I do choose clover, when should I plant it? Thanks, Adam Zone 5 (Iowa City) |
