Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea) as ground cover for Apple saplings??

Yup, Creeping Charlie has taken root on the land and there's no going back.

I was wondering if its roots are going to be too aggressive for our apple saplings (5-7 ft tall whips).  

It is doing the most incredible job serving as ground cover and keeping out any other plants.

Thanks, Z

Just keep it trimmed away from the tree trunks, about 6 inches will do nicely. Don't dig down to remove it, just snip it off at ground level.

I recently learned Glechoma hederacea has medicinal properties good for the respiratory system. Haven't tried or used it myself but just thought I'd mention it.

so do you just smoke it or lol
