Question:
I’m not a gardener! Since I’ve been on my own I’ve had a lot of scrubs taken out and flower beds stones over. This saves the annual cost of a gardener. However, it does look a bit bald in places.
About six weeks ago, a friend and I over-seeded a large patch with ground cover, mainly Alyssum and a thyme plant of some sort. I’ve just wandered out there and it’s all growing very well.
I’m wondering what to do on other patches. Can anyone recommend low ground cover plants that can be sown in the August/September period?

Something like ground cover phlox flowers in the spring and stays evergreen

Thanks. There are some very attractive varieties available online but it's too late to seed the garden with them this year.

It's a butterfly and seeing it fend off the bees is rather spectacular on a big tv

And you can grow them from a seed and a plastic tub cheap summer plants
