Dichondra creates a soft, dense carpet of small rounded leaves, ideal for shaded corners and compact areas where conventional grass struggles. It is not clover and is not intended for heavy traffic; it is an ornamental groundcover for gently used spaces.
Stays low and usually needs only occasional trimming for uniformity.
Broad rounded leaves create an ornamental surface rather than a conventional lawn.
INSTALLATION
From rolls to a seamless lawn
Correct preparation and same-day installation determine success more than anything else.
