Default Hiding a garage

Our new bungalow has a detached concrete slab type of garage with an
asbestos roof. The roof is covered in green moss and so it doesn't
look so bad. The walls look awful as they just plain concrete. We want
something to cover the walls. So far we have one of those fast growing
vines and two virginia creepers growing up the walls but it would be
nice to have smething growing down from the moss covered roof. Any
ideas?

try vinca diformis, evergreen and grows downwards very well (unlike some
climbers that grow back up them selves) it will also root and grow in a
layer of moss!!
