I'm working on letting moss take over the shady part of my yard, to go with the wildflowers I spread in the side yard years ago. My daughter really like them, my sinuses not so much.
If got some mossy parts, but I’ve tried to make it better. This year I’m just gonna remove the fence panels in the front yard which should prevent the rest of the front yard swamp patch. Grass wouldn’t even grow there hardly.
Dealing with water is part of why I'm letting the moss take over.
Clover can handle a lot of water before it gets annoyed. And a fair bit of drought.
Also fixes nitrogen. Idk if shady spots with moss need it, but lawns generally need nitrogen.
