I need a good ground cover that is only 2-3" at most and will be planted in full sun. State is SC.?

Question:This ground is between a pool and a playground so will get some foot traffic by children, but not daily.

Answers:
Snow on the mountain is a beautiful ground cover.So is english ivy.

Get on Freecycle.org (everything is free) and ask for some from local residence. You'd be suprised how many will give you some...It grows fast & spreads beautifully, so I imagine someone out there is willing to thin theirs out. Good luck & God bless.

Try vinca minor...covers quickly and takes a lot of abuse. Also, you can get it with either purple or white flowers and it's beautiful in the summer. There's vinca major also but it has a bigger leaf and may be larger than what you're looking for.
