    Good evening I have a bed to the side of my drive that homes lavender some small fuchsias and a variety of bulbs. Also I have various weeds ragwort mostly gone after a few years but now over run with willow herb and two new fellows have turned up I think they are
    Herb Robert cranesbill and
    Purple dog violet
    Would either of these make a good 'ground cover crop' or will they all give me grief in the end and just get rid? IMG_20200410_142344.jpg IMG_20200409_144946.jpg IMG_20200409_144950.jpg IMG_20200410_142344.jpg IMG_20200409_144946.jpg IMG_20200409_144950.jpg

    I leave both these plants grow in my garden as I think the flowers are nice but not sure they would be dominant enough to be strictly classed as a ground cover.
