Adding Tiny Colour

My roommate expressed an interest in ground cover plants with small flowers to add contrast to the rosemary and lavender I had planted.  

Lobelia erinus cvs. The Lobelia is perfect for this animal trough-turned hanging basket because it cascades beautifully.  I used a mixture of cultivars with blues and whites ('Blue Splash & Blue with White Eye').
Sutera cordata 'Snowstorm'. Also a cascading plant but here I used it in a container to
accompany a lavender (Lavandula x intermedia).
Low maintenance with moderate watering and no deadheading required.
Trifolium repens 'Atropurpureum' - White Clover Dark Dancer.  This is a great filler for the succulents.
