Plant hunt
Hi - I'm hoping to plant some Veronica Repens Sunshine in my garden but can only find plants in the US which can't be shipped overseas, and I have drawn a blank buying plants or seeds in the UK - does anyone have any ideas? I really need a very low-growing, creeping ground cover ideally in a pale, sunshiny, pale, lime green colour and if not this gorgeous plant then something that looks and behaves just like it! Thanks!

I think I've seen it in the alpine section at my local garden centre (ringwood)

Discontinued.. but perhaps you could contact them and see if they know a supplier.

They have it on their PDF plant list.
I am looking for a low growing ground cover plant for a west/south west aspect, to under-plant beneath a small Conference Pear tree and a topary Bay Laurel. I have just successfully removed the mass of wild violets, which are a bit of a pest in the wrong place. They seem to self seed everywhere, only had it for about 3 years, but now becoming a nuisance. Any suggestions please.
Hardy geraniums
Ajuga, nice early flowers for bees and evergreen, grows anywhere in any soil.
