Even the most shade-tolerant grass, St. Augustine, requires more sun to prosper than groundcovers such as Asian jasmine, dwarf Mexican ruellia and monkey grass.
The usual reason to replace one of the lawn grasses with another type of groundcover is because there is too much shade to support a grass variety. Nearly as important a reason to replace grass with one of the listed groundcovers would be to reduce water use and landscape labor.
Grasses can be dug up with a shovel or tilled to be replaced by transplants of the selected groundcover, but the easiest transplanting technique is to spray the actively growing grass that is going to be replaced with Round-up and then plant the transplants into the killed grass that serves as mulch for the new groundcover plants. If the grass being replaced is actively growing when the Round-up is sprayed, the Round-up will end the lawn grass’ growth in two or three days.
Asiatic jasmine transplants in 4-inch containers can be planted on 12-inch centers. They will fill the bed in one growing season. Use the same planting density for the ruellia, the monkey grass and liriope if you can obtain 4-inch containers.
