Dichondra Silver Falls 140MM

Dichondra argentea 'Silver Falls'
Product code: DICASF14S Barcode: 9319711054303 Bunnings Fineline: 0328142

I am Dichondra Silver Falls. My family originated from the Americas.

Habit Groundcover - Hardy and Low Maintenance
Plant family Convolvulaceae
I am a sprawling groundcover with attractive silver foliage that can be enjoyed all year round. My flowers are insignificant. Due to my nature I am perfect to use cascading over retaining walls or spilling over hanging baskets or tall pots. I can also be used as a ground cover or in rockeries I perform best in a full sun to part shade position in moist well-drained soil. I require moderate water once established but do not give me too much water. To keep me looking tidy, give me a prune as required. You can also apply a good quality slow release fertiliser annually.
