Ground cover in Vancouver, WA area

Question

We were thinking that Blue Rug Juniper may be good but it tends to grow out of a given area to another. What would you suggest? We need to cover a front area to keep out weeds and to comply with community rules of neatness. Area is about 20′ by 12′ next to sidewalk and edges the street.

Answer 1

Creeping Junipers can spread, but can be easily controlled by pruning or plant removal.

Varieties 'Bar Harbor' and 'Green Sargent' may be good choices.
