Makes sense. The stone I'm working with is much more on the rose/tan end of the spectrum so the gray works; but you're probably wanting something more chartreusey to really pop. Sedum 'Angelique' creates a massive, evergreen & weed-defying mat of greeney-yellow at my place, but it might be too tall for what you're looking for. I have a gravel border with that Sedum interplanted with creeping phlox. I'm also mixing in delosperma (ice plant), but again that heads in the grayish direction.

My neighbor put in a flagstone path with about a million different groundcovers about two years ago. I'm not enamored with the look of all the different plants mixed together, rather patchy and not very cohesive, but I'll do some strolling and looking at what is thriving this time of year and see if anything jumps out as filling the bill.

Will report back :)
