I always assumed these were both gloriosa but as they're getting bigger I'm not so sure. The one on the right is considerably larger both in crown size and trunk diameter. It's foliage also has a bit of a bluish tint. They've both been trying to send out pups at about the same rate. 

Thanks, Dave

Does the one on the left have serrated leave margins? If so, it sure looks like a young Y. aloifolia.

I think the one on the left is Yucca aloefolia and Yucca gloriosa var. tristis (syn. Yucca recurvifolia) on the right

It is not very pronounced but the leaf margins are serrated on the smaller one. 

Here is a different view showing the trunks of each

The trunks have developed very thin perhaps because of the shaded conditions. Fine serration on the specimen on the right does point to Y. aloifolia. Y. recurvifolia on the left.

If I had to take a stab I'd say dichondra repens

And yea they are a super cool ground cover. They started showing up naturally after I began filling in that area

Awesome thanks!!!! I was actually trying to look for a ground cover like this so this will come in handy, I think I have a small patch of these in my front yard I might be able to move some to spread 😍
