Does anyone know were I can find some good ground covering plants that will not grow any taller than 2 inches.

Didn't you say you are a frequent visitor to the Village Tropical? They have many plant selections. Even more than when I went last month.

Yes I did say I go by there often.
Was asking on the forums to see if any one has any suggestions or maybe they had some for sale too.

Tropical Village is not the only one in town.

At our monthly meetings, members always bring their clippings. And it is there where we get the plants we can normally only dream of getting. Membership fee is just $25 per year. A very good bargain for what you can get out of this club. The fact that we have Luis and ADG in Houston alone speaks enough volume about the potential of having a planted club in Houston.

Other than that, the only other store I can give suggestion is City Pet. They have a fairly decent selection of plants. Price is typical of LFS; higher than what you might be able to pay on-line. Why not try Aquabid? Lowcoaster the seller there has a great selection of plants and many members in APC have purchased from him. You can also try Fish Ranch. Not as many plants as Village and City Pet, but the price seems to be a little lower.
