moss

13 years ago

Hello all, I am looking for some sort of mossy type vegetation to grow up my rocks. I am trying to make my yard/garden have an "English" feel to it. I love the look of old stone walls with moss growing on it. Any suggestions in our dry, windy, cold Reno, Nevada weather to achieve a look like this? I have the stone, but need a mossy look. Thank you...

I have been trying to find something similar as well. So far, baby tears seem to be a bit more hardy from what I found but you can't let them dry out. What sun exposure are you trying to grow moss in?

I also bought some creeping thyme seeds that I want to try in between pavers. That may be another option.
