Default Filling in?

Without seeing the spot, I have to think the OP is not really filling in matching grass because he can't get grass to grow there. Some people put bark mulch in such areas, but you have to replace it periodically. I like to use perennial ground coves in beds. Pachysandra, phlox and Vinca (periwinkle?) have all been very successful. "Walk on Thyme" might work too. When all else fails, put down a few pieces of flat stone and put a bird bath, reflecting ball or sundial in the middle.
