Check your location on line to see what plants are available to select something that will spread quickly. There are all kinds of creeping and spreading plants available. Whether or not it is shaded is also important. -

Hi. In our country we have plants called Sour figs. A succulent with thick leaves which spreads quite fast. And keeps snakes away as well. Elza
