Vinca minor 'Artopurpurea' / Periwinkle An extremely popular evergreen groundcover. This less-common selection forms a dense mat of glossy dark green leaves, studded with deep wine-purple flowers in spring. Very shade tolerant, the leaves will sometimes scorch in too much sun. Tolerates dry shade once plants are established. Stems root into the ground readily, and the new plants that form may be easily moved to a new location in spring or early fall #vinca #periwinkle #groundcover #evergreen #shadetolerant https://www.instagram.com/p/CbHvxiQsrUr/?utm_medium=tumblr

It is a vibrant green, shade tolerant plant, with swordlike foliage that blooms at the top of its stalks in the Spring. The weight of this bloom tips the stalk towards the ground; hence, it’s ‘first step’ and its name, “Walking Iris”. 📷 @deborasmail . . #walkingiris #shadetolerant #houston #houstontx #exteriordesign #exterior #landscapedesign #womenownedbusiness

Trachystemon orientalis – Oriental borage

Herbaceous perennial Height: 25-30cm 

Trachystemon will do in sun or shade, and even in dry shade at the roots of trees (or in damp spots). This rhizomatous is happy with total neglect, almost anywhere (Zones 5 or 6-9). It outcompetes many weeds—a great trait in a groundcover, too. A member of  theForget-me-not family.
