Similar to L. squalida, leaves slightly tinted pewter. Both these plants have been a blessing as ground-cover where little else was suitable, i.e. on root-starved soil under an acer, and hiding concrete edges round a small pool.

I saw this used as ground cover in beds at Sandringham and thought it would suit my new south facing and full/slightly partial sun bed to act as ground cover to help retain water and keep weeds down. I then heard I would never get rid of it if I ever wanted to? Is this correct please?
