Canada Germander
Canada germander is a groundcover that spreads by underground stems. It has shiny, dark green leaves that are held on upright, unbranched stalks.
In July, it grows short, upright spikes of purplish-pink flowers. Because it spreads, it can effectively create a solid groundcover over time.
