Can hardy geraniums be used as a ground cover?

Hardy geraniums or Cranesbill are not like the summer plants we put in containers or plant out in our gardens for the summer months. These are much smaller-flowered perennials that are perfect to use as ground covers.

Bunchberry is the ideal woodland ground cover

Bunchberry or Cornus Canadensis is the perfect ground cover for the woodland garden. It is happy in a moist, acidic soil growing in a coniferous or mixed forest. The small, ground-hugging dogwood looks great in spring summer and fall complete with perfect little flowers and bunches of bright red berries.
