Some mosses you could use are fissidens fontans, christmas moss, Taiwan moss or peacock moss. I just got the Plagiomnium and it is VERY tiny. That px is somewhat deceiving. It looks so much bigger than it is. I have had mine about 3 weeks and it is beginning to grow, but the leaves are TINY, maybe the size of a grain of salt. I'm not saying it wont' weep, it's just how long do you want to wait. Like Andrew said it grows very slowly. And with the naked eye it's not necessarily going to give you that look in the px. The other mosses I mentioned grow much faster.
