purple wintercreeper and autumnmagic chokeberry

I have a sloped hill beside my house that is about 6000 square feet and is in direct sunlight. I recently planted 16 fir trees on it and some grass seed. However, since the slope makes it dfficult to mowe, I decided to use ground cover plants instead of grass. After researching different varieties, I decided on a mixture of purple wintercreeper and autumn chokeberry. I believe both plants offer color all year and they are hardy (which is important for a new gardner trying to turn her brown thumb green).

What I would like to know is, would those two plant varieties fare well on the hill, do they spread and how many should I purchase. Any and all suggestions would be useful.

Sincerely,

Andrea Franco-Cook
