Default How about Ivy?

FamilyNet Newsgate

-snipped-

BIBut the shed is on a slope and we need to prevent erosion that
BIcould topple the shed.

BIOh. Around here there is a common ground cover called asparagus fern.
BICan't think of the botanical name right off. But its roots form a
BIdense mat that would protect against erosion and is dense enough to
BIprevent weeds from sprouting.

Does it thrive in moderate shade (under large maple trees)
and might it thrive in the eastern New England temperate zone?

Ciao, Ack.
