Erigeron karvinskianus (also known as Cespica karvinskiana) is a plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, the same family as the common daisy and chamomile. This relationship is evident when observing the abundant flowering of Erigeron karvinskianus, a dense carpet of white-pink flower heads that closely resemble daisies. These flowers will brighten your lawn for almost the entire year, especially if you live in one of the milder regions of our country.
This plant is also known as the Wall Daisy, as it often grows trailing over or even within the crevices of dry stone walls. This is made possible by its ability to thrive even in the most challenging conditions and to spread very rapidly: each plant can potentially cover a radius of 40 cm! It is precisely this incredible tenacity and robustness that makes it the ideal lawn alternative for the most difficult cases, where other plants fail to establish.
Erigeron karvinskianus is a perennial groundcover, but it behaves as an evergreen only in the milder regions of our country. This plant, native to Mexico, is indeed very fond of warm climates. At -5°C, Erigeron karvinskianus will tend to enter dormancy, but if the temperature does not drop below -10°C, you will see it sprout without problems in spring and return to its full splendour in no time.
If you plan to plant Erigeron karvinskianus under a tree, make sure it is tall enough to allow the plant sufficient light: low trees tend to cast dense shade in which moisture evaporates with difficulty, which is not ideal for Erigeron karvinskianus. This plant is indeed very fond of light, well-drained soils and has no problems with calcareous soils.
Erigeron karvinskianus can easily be combined with other groundcovers. You could create a magnificent and varied colour palette by pairing it with the striking flowers of Verbena hybrida, create distinctive contrasts with one of our lawn Achilleas, or opt for an Asteraceous “cousin” with similar flowers, Anacyclus pyrethrum var. depressus. Don't forget that a varied lawn tends to be more resistant and adaptable!
As with most lawn alternatives, the best time to plant Erigeron karvinskianus is in early autumn. This choice allows you to make the most of the water provided by the approaching rainy season, but spring planting is equally suitable for harmonious plant growth. If you plant the lawn in spring, you will simply need to allow for a few extra waterings during the first summer to support the plants as they establish.
By following our recommended planting density (10 plants per square metre), the Erigeron karvinskianus lawn will close uniformly within 8–12 months.
During the establishment phase, the lawn will need to be watered infrequently but with abundant quantities of water. The frequency of watering Erigeron karvinskianus during this initial phase should be assessed independently, ensuring that the soil is completely dry at a depth of 8–10 cm.
Once the lawn has completed its first year, watering can be limited to once (or at most twice) a year. As for the maintenance of Erigeron karvinskianus, we recommend mowing 2 to 6 times a year.
Erigeron karvinskianus is sold in trays of 60 cells. For optimal coverage, we recommend a density of 10 plants per square metre, so each tray is designed to cover 6 m².
You can cover the area you need by combining 6 m² trays and half trays of 3 m² (30 plants). Remember that for areas larger than 100 m², we provide custom quotes tailored to your needs!

All you need is a tape measure and five minutes. Here’s how to figure out how many square meters (m²) you need for your lawn.
Divide it into rectangles and triangles, calculate each section, and add the results together. Then subtract areas that do not need to be planted: paths, patios, pools, and shrub beds.
Add an extra 5–10% for edges, curves, and small measurement errors. Then choose the next larger size or combine multiple sizes.
Example: 7 × 3 m garden = 21 m², minus a 1 × 3 m path = 18 m². With an extra 10%, you get about 20 m²: choose 24 m² or combine 12 + 6 + 3 m².
Send us the measurements or a photo of the garden from the Contact page, or message us on WhatsApp: we’ll help you choose the right quantity.

Erigeron karvinskianus is a perennial groundcover, but it only behaves as an evergreen in the most temperate areas of our country. This plant, native to Mexico, is in fact very fond of warm climates. From -5°C Erigeron karvinskianus will tend to go into dormancy, but if the temperature does not drop below -10°C you will see it pop back up without problems in spring and return to its full glory in a short time.
If you plan to place Erigeron karvinskianus under a tree, make sure it is a tree tall enough to leave the right amount of light for the Erigeron: low trees tend to cover the lawn with a dense shade in which moisture evaporates with difficulty, which is not ideal for Erigeron karvinskianus. This plant is in fact very fond of light and well-drained soils, and has no problems with calcareous soils.
Erigeron karvinskianus can easily be paired with other groundcovers.

As with most lawn alternatives, the best time to plant Erigeron karvinskianus is in early autumn. This is because you can make the most of the water provided by the approaching rainy season, but planting in spring is also a good option for encouraging the young plants to grow evenly. If you plant the lawn in spring, you will need to water it a little more during the first summer to support the young plants as they establish.
If you follow our recommended planting density of 10 plants per square metre, the Erigeron karvinskianus lawn will fill in evenly within 8–12 months.
While the lawn is establishing, it should be watered infrequently but thoroughly. You will need to assess the watering needs of Erigeron karvinskianus during this initial stage, making sure that the soil is completely dry at a depth of 8–10 cm.
After the lawn is one year old, watering may be limited to once (or at most twice) a year. As for maintaining Erigeron karvinskianus, we recommend mowing it two to six times a year.
Erigeron karvinskianus is sold in 60-cell trays. For optimal coverage, we recommend a density of 10 plants per square meter, so each tray is designed to cover 6 m².

WHAT IS AN ALTERNATIVE LAWN
A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low-growing, dense, and hardy plants born for hot, dry climates.
The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is kinder to the environment.
THE IMPORTANCE OF A STRONG ROOT SYSTEM
As the world’s leading skin health accreditation body, we want everyone to have access to the best help and advice to care for their skin & more.
Prepare the soil by removing weeds and loosening the top 25–30 cm
Remove the tray and separate the seedlings with a knife or scissors
Space 10 seedlings per m². Plant them well, making sure to cover the entire growing medium.
Water thoroughly until the soil is saturated.

Le piante sono arrivate tutte vive, ed hanno attecchito tutte, solo due sono morte ma per cause esterne, un gatto malefico le ha svelte dal terreno ma ora non lo farà più. L unico problema sono le infestanti, nel mio caso gramigna. Consiglio a chi è intenzionato a impiantare un prato del genere di fare una ACCURATA bonifica preventiva. Per il resto tutto ok

piantine perfettamente confezionate e integre. messe a dimora dopo 3 giorni sembra attecchiscano bene con i consigli forniti dall'assistenza. Prezzo apparentemente eccessivo ma plateau generoso per numero di piantine. Franchenia laevis appare più forte rispetto alla Erigeron karvinskianus ma da verificare nel tempo, anche in relazione alla capacità di propagarsi, che spero sia efficiente. molto soddisfatto finora

Belle davvero!!! Ho ordinato tre tipi di piantine e sono arrivate belle confezionate e divise per tipo in appositi contenitori. La spedizione è arrivata veloce in tre giorni. All’interno della confezione erano allegate le istruzioni per come piantare e coltivare le piantine, in più un grazioso omaggio. Ho piantato tutto, fra un po di mesi saprò dire se son sopravvissute tutte o se ce ne saranno di morte. Grazie.
