In late spring, it produces small yellow flowers that will add a series of special highlights to your lawn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCHARACTERISTICS OF DYMONDIA MARGARETAE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDymondia margaretae loves full sun and well-drained soils. It grows more slowly than other \u003cstrong\u003ealternative lawns\u003c\/strong\u003e, but your patience will be well rewarded: it is a groundcover that will gradually spread over large areas over time without being hindered by uneven or sloping ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt grows to a maximum height of 4 cm, making it the ideal lawn for those with little time to devote to garden maintenance. It tolerates drought very well and is also salt-resistant, making it suitable for particularly hot climates or coastal areas. Dymondia margaretae is also the ideal choice for anyone looking for a groundcover suitable for a \u003cstrong\u003eMediterranean rock garden\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDymondia is a lawn that generally works very well on its own. Not only does it differ from other alternative lawn varieties from an aesthetic point of view, but given its tendency to remain very low, it would almost inevitably be “overgrown” by the exuberance of lawns such as Lippia nodiflora or Verbena hybrida. Our advice is to reserve well-defined areas of your garden for Dymondia and give it the time it needs to form its beautiful green-silver carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePLANTING AND MAINTENANCE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with most of our groundcovers, the best time to plant a lawn of \u003cstrong\u003eDymondia margaretae\u003c\/strong\u003e is 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 the harmonious growth of the plants. If you plant the lawn in spring, you will need to allow for a few extra waterings during the first summer to support the plants as they establish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy following our recommended planting density (10 plants per square metre), the Dymondia lawn will close evenly within 10\/12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the establishment phase, the lawn will need to be watered infrequently but with abundant amounts of water. The frequency of \u003cstrong\u003eDymondia margaretae irrigation\u003c\/strong\u003e during this initial phase should be assessed independently, ensuring that the soil is completely dry at a depth of 8\/10 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the lawn has completed its first year, watering can be limited to once (or at most twice) a year. As for the \u003cstrong\u003emaintenance of Dymondia margaretae\u003c\/strong\u003e, we recommend mowing 2 to 4 times a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSALE OF DYMONDIA MARGARETAE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDymondia\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can create the area you need by combining 6 m² trays and half trays of 3 m² (30 plants).
