but the viola and spurge have worked out their borders...the viola is the buffer between the ground cover and the lawn...

Match made in heaven. :-) Both thick lovely greens and spring bloomers.

Thanks folks! yes, I'm gradually getting rid of the ubiquitous weed (grass) I prefer clover to grass in some spots...it's lush and sweet smelling and once it's mowed it looks as good as a grass lawn, (IMHO)
