Sow at around 5-10g per square metre

For the best results, the grass seed should be sown during the spring and summer months, raking into well prepared soil, with approx 5/10 gms. of seed per sq metre. Ensure area is weed free to allow it to grow without competition. Once sown, keep soil damp until germination is complete then reduce the watering (twice per week, then reduce again, since dichondra lives well in dry and poor soils). Grows 10cm high x 50cm wide. Can be used as a hanging basket plant too.

The Dichondra Repens or Kidney Weed is a very popular grass seed and is used as a replacement to the standard lawn in many Mediterranean countries especially Italy, Spain and southern France. It remains short, requiring little or even no cutting and very little watering to remain green and healthy. The coverage it gives is very soft and almost 'springy' underfoot but it is surprisingly tough and resistant to normal use. Even though it is used in Mediterranean areas it is not harmed by the harshest of winter weathers. Will spread quickly through its creeping roots so excellent for quick ground coverage. In heavily used areas, stepping stones will help to protect it.
