I wish to make a bold design (cresent shape) within a lawn area of something colourful, lasting, low maintenance and low growing.Scented would be good too.
Many thanks

There's a variegated one, too, or a gold-leaved one. Bees love them!

Thyme is a very good one but another idea would be Ajuga, not so sure if it is scented, but very attractive and evergreen too. i have a variety that flowers twice a year.

Or Heathers? There are species for both acid and alkaline soils. Some are fragrant.

good thinking Spritz. another couple to add would be Rock Cress (Arabis), or Houseleek (Sempervivum), or Sedum - loads to choose from there..

Try Thyme. Loads to choose from very scented and you can cut it and walk on it.
