Ah I love ground covers too, that Trifolium 'Green Ice' is really lovely! I haven't seen that one before. I also have sweet woodruff - I just got it about two summers ago after I'd been searching for it for ages - I love it - it's such a pretty green color and the white flowers brighten up even the darkest corner. I have an Ajuga reptans 'Atropurpurea' that does ok if it's not in too heavily shaded area. I also find Lamium maculatum a fine ground cover, both the species and 'Beacon Silver'.
I bought a hardy geranium this spring that's turning out to be a really fine groundcover - it's name is Mavis Simpson.

That oxalis reminds me of one I read about with dark red foliage - I don't recall the name of it - I'll have to go look it up:-)
