Don't you just wanna walk down this path covered in Mazus reptans?

What is Mazus reptans? It is a fabulous ground cover, great between stones of a path. It grows like a matt, and it can really spread fast. It needs full to part sun in well drained soil. Do you want to find out where this path leads?? (HA! You'll have to read til the end...)

Mazus must be kept after or it will just creep and crawl all over. It's flower is sort of snapdragon-ish but much smaller.
We often curse the stuff at this client's home because we are constantly cutting it back to the edge of each blue stone.

On the left of the path is lambs ear. On the right (top of pic to bottom) is perennial geranium. Some people call it cranesbill. It has a great pink flower. It' s just started to pop. Next is some heuchera, then more lambs ear, then close is alchemilla mollis, also called Lady's Mantle.

Today we deadheaded a bazillion daffodil spent stalks on this property, we tied up clematis vines, we oohed and ahhhed over the hidden bottle-brush buckeye that we have nursed from a sappling 5 years ago,

the bottle-brush buckeye

we also cut back asters, we tended to the small vegie garden and I, and I alone, tended to the boxwoods. There are 80 to 100 boxwoods at this place - a couple can be seen at the end of the Mazus path. They call me...the Shrub Doctor! LOL.

Anyway, I am pooped. Y'all have a lovely evening,

Happy Gardening, gardenlady

Oh yes! This path leads to a lovely patio! I went home early and apparently didn't finish cleaning up. My colleague sent me this photo of the end of the path and asked if I forgot something...;0)

A little mess...

and the rake!
