1323 Dichondra Repens..aha..that's got you !!

Our lovely lady in our Garden Centre advised us to put the above down instead of grass seed...she says it suits the Puglia climate better and doesn't need watering or much cutting ( skies are very dark grey this morning ! :rolleyes: )
Has anyone used it and found it successful .....we put it down last night in one garden which is nearly finished ....don't want to put it in the others if it doesn't work !

Hi Alex & Lyn,

We have several Japanese neighbors who all have Dichondra lawns. We see them outside tending to their weeding. From what I gather (at least here) there are other grasses that get into their pretty lawns, thus the weeding. They seem to love their lawns, and they usually look very nice and green.

J&D

thanks ...as long as it is green !!!!..I'm hoping the weeds will blend in !! :rolleyes:
Has anyone else noticed that now that it has cooled down...grass is appearing everywhere ...our orchard at the bottom of our land looks gorgeous now ...like a meadow...but during the summer just reddish earth !...hope it doesn't need cutting...couldn't get electricity down there !!!!
