Sow seed at 10 g/m2 in a soft, well drained soil mix and very lightly rake to avoid burying the seed. ... Summer sowing is possible with careful irrigation. Germination: Seedlings emerge after 7-14 days in temperatures above 20 degrees. Weed Control: Dichondra is slow growing so weeds can compete with it.
To grow dichondra from seed, first prepare your planting site or container by making sure the soil is loose and free of weeds. Press the seeds into the soil but don't totally cover them, as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination occurs, which should take around two weeks.
Start your Dichondra Silver Falls seeds indoors twelve weeks before the last frost date in your area. Cover your Dichondra Silver Falls seed lightly with 1/8-1/4 an inch of potting mix and keep the soil evenly moist until the Dichondra Silver Falls seedlings have completely emerged.
Best sown indoors at 68-70° Sow seeds 6-8 weeks before planting out and at a depth of 4 times the diameter of the seed.
The Dichondra plant is primarily grown as ground cover. It's a great choice for covering areas that are difficult to mow. It features bright, round leaves and prefers full sun.. . . . .364011234001!]0000000000000009783314144851!]
