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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant is also known as the \u003cstrong\u003eWall Daisy\u003c\/strong\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCHARACTERISTICS OF ERIGERON KARVINSKIANUS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eErigeron karvinskianus is a \u003cstrong\u003eperennial groundcover\u003c\/strong\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eErigeron 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!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePLANTING AND MAINTENANCE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy following our recommended planting density (10 plants per square metre), the Erigeron karvinskianus lawn will close uniformly within 8–12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the establishment phase, the lawn will need to be watered infrequently but with abundant quantities of water. The frequency of \u003cstrong\u003ewatering Erigeron karvinskianus\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 Erigeron karvinskianus\u003c\/strong\u003e, we recommend mowing 2 to 6 times a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSALES OF ERIGERON KARVINSKIANUS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eErigeron 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can cover the area you need by combining 6 m² trays and half trays of 3 m² (30 plants).
