RE: Progress on the garden wall

Hi Kitty-

From the limited research I've done online (in the last 5 minutes) it seems
that Sagina doesn't want hot afternoon sun.  Near the sidewalk it gets
REALLY hot, so I might be able to use it further up that path, but I think
I'd need something more heat/sun tolerant at the end of the path.

Sorry, should have used the common name but couldn't think of it at the
time.  Sagina subulata is Irish Moss.  But it's not really a moss.  Here's a
picture (you'll have to scroll down for it):

I chose that pic because it shows it used around stepping stones.
