Greetings,
We have a lakefront cottage on 2 acres in zone 3b-4a here in Ontario, so any suggested plant should be viable down to at least zone 3. What we're looking for is a fast-spreading groundcover that can grow in full shade/partial sunshine and is not killed by cover from fall leaves. Most of the forest on the property is comprised of coniferous trees, but there are copious deciduous trees as well, mostly maples, birches, and beeches, hence the autumn leaves.
Essentially, virtually nothing green is growing on the forest floor because of layers of dead leaves, and we'd like to change that if possible.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks.
