Dichondra Repens-'Kidney Weed'-OTHER-seeds

DICHONDRA REPENS “Kidney Weed”

Family: Convolvulaceae. 

Ideal sowing temp: 10-22C (Avoid the coldest and hottest temps). 

Position:  Low traffic areas 

Sowing: 1mm deep. Direct sow.   

Care:  Water with fine mist spray to avoid disturbance of the seed. Covering the seeds with a light layer of peat moss helps with moisture retention. If using as a lawn alternative, the dichondra can be mowed to around 4 cm in the summer, cutting every two weeks.

Sprouting: 7-42 days. 

Drought-resistant, creeping ground-cover, native to Australia and New Zealand. A lawn substitute for low foot traffic areas, it is often planted in places where other turf-type grass does not grow well. Adult leaves are kidney shaped and small flowers green-yellow. It will form a thick mat in part shaded positions and also looks wonderful in hanging baskets or pots as it will cascade over the side and is very low maintenance.

Approx 250-450 seeds per gram

 SOWING RATE: 1 KG PER 100 METERS SQUARE
