    Why not make your DW stand vertically up? Or grow your moss carpet first, before deciding on placing a DW or rock?

    I do have moss surviving under "shaded" area - but not completely dark. But they will come out looking for light

    DW vertically ugly lar, my DW is give cave feeling which i like, then somemore got moss on it.

    I think i jus give a try.

    PLease advise, you just put the rock on the moss mesh, or left a gap on the mesh and put the rock on it ??

    Normally when I plant, I will plant first, then put the DW in.

    No point leaving a gap and hoping the moss will cover it. Rather, let the moss grow out of the shadows.
