About Groundcover Identifier

A low green carpet is spreading between the paving stones, under shrubs or across the bank, and you want to know if it is a welcome groundcover or a creeping problem. Our groundcover identifier names creeping thyme, vinca, pachysandra, ajuga, creeping Jenny, sedum, clover and many others from a photo. It also tells you how fast it spreads and whether it is invasive in many regions.

How It Works

Photograph from directly above to show the mat and leaf arrangement, then take a close-up of a single runner with leaves and, if present, flowers. A shot of the edge of the patch shows how it spreads. The result gives the species, its spread rate, foot-traffic tolerance and sun or shade preference.

Key Benefits

  • Separates desirable groundcovers from creeping weeds like ground ivy (creeping Charlie)
  • Notes which species can be walked on, such as creeping thyme and clover
  • Warns about aggressive spreaders like vinca and English ivy in natural areas
  • Suggests suitable groundcovers for slopes, dry shade or between pavers
  • Free once a day from your phone, no sign-up
