What is the cheapest ground cover for a garden?
Gravel is one of the cheapest ground cover options for garden landscaping. It is versatile and allows for good drainage. If you prefer a green ground cover, white clover or thyme are affordable options. Best low-water & no-mow options: ✔ clover lawns – stays green year-round, fixes nitrogen in the soil, and requires no mowing. Ground covers (creeping thyme, sedum, moss) – low-growing, dense, and weed-resistant. Artificial turf – no maintenance required, great for dry areas or high-traffic yards.
