Good thread idea, maybe you'll get more response in spring when things are fresh and flowering.
One of my favourites, moss, native sedums and garden chives on a stone, third season since planting.

This is beautiful!! How do you get the dirt to mound that way and stay? I've been trying to find answers on composition and it's a tough thing to get details on

I've never encounterd a domesticated fern? But I'm close. But I do hane a couple relatively catus domesticus.
I dont understand this thread at all. Shouldn't an accent plant have a bonsai with it? I have got catnip growing in my bonsai before. My accent plants are usually accidenental. Being in the PNW the moss I welcome. Also corsican mint is no big deal, But birds eye pearl wort looks good for a time but is a pain. Also this one marsh penywort. I dont know how I'll ever get rid of it now. Also liverwort but its easy,
