I've been looking into Irish/Scotch Moss...probably night the right answer, but intriguing. Anyone played around with those locally?

I've also been noticing a lot of different plants/grasses/weeds used to fill barren spaces beside sidewalks...have a few pics on my phone I'll have to try to upload. There's one particular short grass I've noticed that seems really hearty, but not sure how well it would do in shade.

We put a small patch of Irish moss, which isn't in the picture, but it has done OK. The other 2 are a kind of succulent, my wife will ID it and I'll let you know. On the right is creeping thyme, which has done very well. In the background is creeping Lucy, probably hunting a moth.
