Perennial Candytuft
What I know:
� Perennial.
� Grows less than 6" from the ground, but spreads by long runners.
� Is very pretty while in bloom, makes a nice groundcover for taller flowers. Unfortunately, it does nothing to keep weeds down, instead it hides them from you until they are well rooted. Overnight the patch will go from a nice neat clump to a hairy weedy mess.
� Very persistent.
� Requires no special attention; can tolerate drought, all levels of light/shade, chewing, kicking, tearing, cutting, ripping, etc.
� I'd strongly suggest ranking this with your mints - don't put it in unless you're really, really sure that you want it.
