Moss, and plenty of weeds are growing in it. I also have some desirable seedlings popping up among the weeds such as chamomile, torenia,and penstemon. I moved some of the moss between the stepping stones in the garden. In an interesting aside this is the second instance I've noticed a seemingly acidic infertile strip of mossy ground plays host to seedlings. In another mossy area between stepping stones I was surprised to see many small heucheras. wrightie, I also love Irish moss and will add some to this area. I'm not familiar with pennyroyal but do have a few different thymes, moss phlox and variegated oregano I might be able to divide next spring. I guess if I plant a tapestry of different textures I can avoid the grass in the driveway look. BTW one of my first thoughts was to seed grass and small bulbs in this strip until someone mentioned it would look like a mohawk. Pagancat, I assume I'd have to wait until spring to seed alyssum? So something like the photo with stepping stones in the middle should look ok ? BTW the lizard is not real. |
