This hill drains down into a French drain and is loaded with ants so the soil is sandy and pretty aerated. I'm looking for some kind of local ground cover that will take with minimal watering. I hate cutting the grass and would like to put something here that would serve my local pollinators as well. I just don't want to accidentally plant anything invasive.

If anyone has some insights as to what will thrive in that location I would greatly appreciate it.

    I was no joke about to post something like this. Maybe because it’s April and I’ve cut 3 times already lol. But anyway, I’m done with my lawn.

    I would also love to know what is recommended in CT.

    Following along.

    Just to drop something here, my local garden supply store suggested Bearberry on the hill. It is evergreen and super hardy for this type of application.
