Groundcovers that Thrive in Full Sun
(category list)

Full sunlight is needed for many plants to assume their full potential. Many of these plants will do fine with a little less sunlight, although they may not flower as heavily or their foliage may not be as as vibrant. Areas on the southern and western sides of buildings usually are the sunniest. Full sun usually means 6 or more hours of direct unobstructed sunlight on a sunny day. Plants able to take full sun in some climates may only be able to tolerate part shade in other climates. Know the performance of the plant in your climate before you buy and plant it. Consider contacting your local cooperative extension for advice about how a plant performs in your specific area.
