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 Irish Moss and Creeping Thyme in between the flagstone path from our house to the garage. Just planted it this year so we'll see how it fills in.
