I have 3 terraces and they need some help to fill in, what is easy to plant and easy to care for and hopefully fills in quickly, I am trying to make care of this part of my yard easier to care for, not constant daily weeding

Put down your soil then a layer of plastic then poke holes to accomadate your plant. I put little stones around the plants to also deter weeds from coming through the plant hole!!
Creeping Phlox, Lily of the Valley, Sedum, Pachysandra, and Lamb's Ear are all good choices.
You can get Juniper plants that are low growing, stay green all winter and spread about 3 feet in diameter, while being about 18 to 24 inches tall. I love Pachysandra. It grows well even in partial shade. It takes a while to establish. A nursery man told me the third year is when it will take off, but it's really pretty once it's established. You local nursery can help you with some possibilities, or go on pinterest and search for ground covers.
Vinca if its agreeable to your planting zone. Sedum might be considered too.
