Falkia repens is a fast-growing groundcover, characterized by prostrate stems that elongate and root at the nodes, forming a dense carpet. The leaves are rounded and slightly succulent, while the trumpet-shaped flowers are white or pink.

Our lawns use over 80% less water and maintenance than traditional lawns. Try it to believe it!

Falkia repens prefers sunny or partially shaded positions. It adapts well to well-drained, low-fertility soils, but also grows in sandy soils. It is tolerant of heat and drought, but does not like prolonged frosts, making it perfect for coastal areas.

Falkia repens is ideal as a groundcover for covering slopes or hard-to-reach areas. It is a good alternative to traditional lawns, thanks to its low maintenance requirements, and is perfect for rock gardens, borders, and spaces between paving. It tolerates moderate foot traffic, making it suitable for frequently visited gardens.

Falkia repens pairs perfectly with various groundcovers, creating a variegated and hardy lawn. Among the grey-leaved plants, Dymondia margaretae and Achillea crithmifolia add elegant contrasts. For vibrant blooms, Verbena hybrida and Lippia nodiflora offer color and hardiness. Thymus serpyllum and Frankenia laevis, on the other hand, enrich the garden with fragrances and delicate pink hues, adapting even to difficult soils such as saline ones. Don't forget that a variegated lawn tends to be more resistant and adaptable!

The best time to plant Falkia repens is inearly autumn. This choice is dictated by the possibility of making the most of the water supply provided by the approaching rainy season, but spring planting is equally suitable for the harmonious growth of the seedlings. If you plant the lawn in spring, you will simply need to allow for a little extra watering during the first summer to support the seedlings as they establish.

By following our recommended planting density of10 seedlings per square metre), the Falkia repens lawn will fill in evenly within8–12 months.

During the establishment phase, the lawn will need to be watered infrequently but with abundant quantities of water. The watering frequency of Falkia repens 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 Falkia repens, we recommendmowing 2 to 6 times throughout the year.

Falkia repens 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.

You can achieve the area you need by combining 6 m² trays and half trays of 3 m² (30 plants). Remember that for areas over 100 m² we provide custom quotes tailored to your needs!

WHAT IS AN ALTERNATIVE LAWN

Save Time and Water

Treat yourself to a wildflower lawn that requires very little water and maintenance!

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.

Todo perfecto, las plantulas llegan en óptimo estado desde Italia a España en un plazo máximo de 5 días. Viene todo bien empaquetado y protegido y con el grado adecuado de humedad. Del primer pedido que se plantaron hace 6 semanas ninguna se ha estropeado. El segundo pedido de bandeja mixta está recién plantado y estoy segura que se desarrollarán también de manera adecuada. Totalmente confiable y recomendable. No suelo comprar plantas online, únicamente las variantes de céspedes alternativos de Botanical Dry Garden por la excelente calidad. Todo el apoyo e información para resolver dudas por parte de la empresa.

Crescita perfetta. Dopo tre settimane si vede già che le piantine sono cresciute parecchio.

Prato di Falkia repens

Ottima esperienza. Ho acquistato da loro delle piantine per prato alternativo sia lo scorso autunno che questa primavera e devo dire che le piantine hanno attecchito molto bene. Imballaggi perfetti e soprattutto tanta attenzione per il cliente. In primavera per scusarsi di un piccolo ritardo sulla consegna mi hanno persino spedito una ventina di piantine in più. Il loro servizio clienti funziona benissimo ed ogni volta che li ho contattati sono stati tutti molto gentili e attenti nel fornirmi le info necessarie. Consigliatissimi.
