I have a Blue Cedar in our front garden which has quite a spread.
In accordance with our new policy of eliminating grass, which plants, shrubs, ferns, groundcover etc, could possibly be planted underneath this tree?
The ground is absolutely covered in needles but grass formerly grew quite happily under it with no problems. However, grass is now no longer in our garden plans. _________________ .

In my experience it is very difficult to get anything to establish under mature trees. The existing plant with strong roots always takes the lions share of the water and nutrients. _________________ ______________________________
