Dichondra Repens - Tray

Dichondra repens is the Australian native kidney weed, a fine-textured groundcover that runs flat along the ground and roots as it goes, forming a soft mat of small round leaves. It is the Dichondra to use as a no-mow lawn alternative, between pavers and stepping stones, and in shaded strips where grass struggles, and it takes light foot traffic once established. Supplied as a tray for mass planting. The named selections, Emerald Falls, Green Surfer and Silver Falls, are bred to trail long from a pot instead, so they are basket and container plants rather than ground cover. Part to full shade. Well-drained soil. Water regularly in hot weather, especially in pots.
