Mondo Grass
Of course, it is not actually a grass. The thick clumps of evergreen grass-like foliage of mondo grass, Ophiopogon japonicas, make a nice lumpy ground cover for small spaces. Because it is rather tolerant of shade, and actually prefers partial shade to full sun, it works nicely under Japanese maples or highly branched overgrown rhododendrons.

SEEEEEEDDDDSSSSSS
I got 5 packets of creeping thyme seeds yesterday! Now I am just waiting for my rock cress seeds to arrive so I can start sprouting them indoors so they have a headstart on root growth before I chuck them out into the yard to do their ground cover thing.

Creeping phlox (Phlox subulata) is a versatile, easy-to-grow ground cover that prefers full sun and well-draining soil. It is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens. Creeping phlox produces a stunning carpet of colorful blooms in the spring and tends to spread, making it a popular choice for rock gardens, borders, and slopes - or as a weed suppressant. Creeping phlox is native to the eastern and central United States.
