need a plant that doesn't grow (much)

geez! I am constantly pruning my 'walker's low' catmint, lamb's ear, germander, purple skullcap (not pink, so much!), chives, thyme, and more!

The city lady who oversees such crimes as flowers flowing into the sidewalk has found me a repeat offender, and has a penchant for sending me warnings. So, this weekend I trimmed and trimmed and trimmed and am ready to wave the white flag.

I REALLY need to find some accompaniments to my rose beds, that don't want to be huge...low ground covers that shyly move towards a full look...

Sadly, I love a chock full garden, bursting out the sides, but must contain myself (and my garden) to not continue my crime streak. Any ideas??

ANyone out there with an overzealous officer? Wondering if a regular supply of donuts would help....geez...wish she would spend as much time overseeing the dog poppers!!
