[Result]The plant height of Carex ''Evergold'' was the shortest but its spread ability was the strongest. The ornamental effect of Dianthus Superbus was the best. The resistance ability of Alternanthera Paronychioides was the strongest. The order of comprehensive weighted score of 14 indexes for 6 species of introduced ground cover plants was Carex ''Evergold''>Altemanthera Paronychioides>Tulbaghia violacea>Dianthus Superbus>Imperata cylindrical ''Rubra''>Verbena bonariensis.
