Thank you Jeri. I will look at Lowes. Is it just Mock Orange pittosporum? I see that is hardy in zones 8+, but really things will be a mishmash (is that a word?? LOL)

We are in The suburbs of Denver Colorado. I have been always told we are zone 5b, but easily have glads, and calas come back for me year after year with no mulch, so I do push the envelope knowing well that I could, and probably will lose much of what Ive planted. But then I just get to buy more LOL.

I have thought about Vinca, as its a nice spreader, and also easily pulled up. We really dont have to worry about too much being incredibley invaisive here, the soil is terrible, the winters often times get harsh, the droughts do alot of things in, and very few things can tolerate our full sun LOL.

We have a pretty big Peony in the back left of the picture, that grows to about 3'x4-5' we have some magic lilies in there, and a forget-me-not that all got spared.
I wish I had a better picture of the before, this one is awful shaded.
