What is Dichondra?

Dichondra is a low-growing, evergreen perennial popular in New Zealand for its versatility and beauty. Its small, kidney-shaped leaves form a dense mat that’s both eye-catching and practical as a lawn alternative or trailing plant. Common types include Dichondra repens, an excellent low-maintenance ground cover, and more ornamental varieties such as Dichondra Emerald Falls and Dichondra Silver Falls.

Choosing Your Dichondra Variety

While "bunnings dichondra" often brings up the popular Dichondra repens, gardeners seeking ornamental trailing foliage for pots or retaining walls might fall in love with Dichondra Silver Falls. Its silvery leaves create a stunning waterfall effect, perfect for modern landscapes or mixed baskets. For a classic rich green, Dichondra Emerald Falls is a top pick—hardy and showy, ideal for softening edges in your garden or patio.

Growing and Caring for Dichondra

Dichondra is favoured for its tolerance of foot traffic, drought resistance, and low mowing requirements. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. Water young plants regularly and, once established, they’ll require little attention. If you’re replacing a traditional lawn, consider using Victory Gold - 1 Litre to clear unwanted weeds and create a blank slate for new dichondra plantings.

For container planting or hanging baskets, pair dichondra with contrasting foliage like Duranta Sheenas Gold to create vibrant living displays. Dichondra’s trailing stems can soften hard surfaces and add an organic touch to outdoor settings.
