English ivy?
stones like you see along the highway. Go to a quarry
For low to no maintenance creeping sedum.It comes in many different varieties and color.
Consider scraping it all down to raw dirt, spread tons of wild flower seeds and let it go.
Ornamental grasses, mixed wildflowers, stone/wood retaining walls set at angles to the drop, to allow drainage, hold soil
Definitely sedum! Stay away from ivy! Ivy requires more maintenance and is almost impossible to get rid of (I think it's related to kudzu...lol). I live in SC too and have several types of sedum that stay green all winter that require no maintenance. For my money, sedum are your best bet. Check at Lowes or someplace like thativy!
