Help
I have a moss question. If I want moss to grow between bricks on my driveway (5mm gaps), can I just cut moss up, put it in, and water it? Will it grow (there's residual soil between the bricks as weeds grow there)? There's loads of moss (sphagnum amongst others, nearby) which I could harvest.

Luscious green on the Great Glen Way near Drumnadrochit, Scotland
https://i.imgur.com/iH9m8eq.jpg

(I'm not a moss expert so forgive me if this isn't actually moss. 😅)
