It is one of the most effective pure-foliage hanging basket plants available - no flowers, just a clean, lush wall of green that looks fresh and full from the moment it is hung. It is a Dichondra repens selection, and it differs from Silver Falls in both leaf and habit: the leaves are rounded and held close to the stem, and the plant branches heavily early, so it covers a pot faster and holds a denser, tighter shape. It also grows wider than it grows long, trailing to around 90cm, where Silver Falls keeps running. Bright indirect light.

From a hanging basket the stems cascade to 1.5m or more, creating a waterfall of silver that is visible from a distance. Also outstanding spilling over retaining walls and raised garden beds. It is Dichondra argentea, a different species to the green Dichondras and native to desert country in the American southwest, which is where its heat and drought tolerance come from.
