Because of weeds continually growing through (weedmat already down and poisoning required), it's getting me down. I'm looking for something that that would be 8-10 inches high at best. The ground is 90% sand.

I don't know how well it would do up there but I grow convovulus as a ground cover also there is a prostrate form of grevillea and also a boobialla that might be ok for up there. And the old standby African daisy but that can be invasive - you might need to check with your local council whether some of these would be regarded as feral in your area.

Thank you for the suggestions. I'm looking ideally for a smothering growth habit to prevent the weeds from coming through, and with the established larger 3' high plants doing well, a splash of colour like Portulacca or Pigface would do well.

Try moss roses(portulaca). This is not a rose but a trailing succulent. They can take extreme heat and are very easy to grow.
Is there a ground cover that will let other flowers, such as bulb flowers like tulips or hyacinths, come up through it after it's established?
