Dichondra Seed (Dichondra Repens) 

Dichondra is a perennial ground cover that grows into a low, dense, lush carpet. Dichondra is a warm season plant, and it performs best in mild/warm climates. Dichondra spreads by under ground runners or stolons. The small kidney shaped leaves, about a half inch across, have a tendency to grow somewhat larger, with longer stems, in shade. In its massed effect, dichondra has the appearance of clover, and the resulting thick sod is usually 1.5 - 2 inches high. Dichondra is surprisingly tolerant as far as various types of soil are concerned, and has proved to be successful in both the sun and shade.

Seed Rate: 1.5 to 2 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft.
Seed Depth: 1/4 inch
Planting Time: Spring, Summer
Fertilizer: 1/2 to 1 lb. per 1000 sq. ft.
Mowing: 1/2 to 1 inch
pH: 5.5 - 6.2

Planting Directions
Dichondra can be grown from seed very easily.  The recommended seeding rate for coated Dichondra is 3 pounds of seed per 1,000 square feet.  The best time to sow Dichondra is from March through May; midsummer planting will germinate faster but will need careful, frequent waterings.  Planting early will produce sturdy root systems that can take mid-summer heat and some water stress.

For New Lawns:
Prepare the seed bed as you would for a new grass lawn. Dichondra seeds sown in spring do not need mulch; just rake the seed gently and roll it with a light roller.  If you sow in the summer, use just enough of a light mulch of damp peat moss to cover.  This will help keep the seedbed moist.  DO NOT LET THE SEEDBED DRY OUT !!!

Caring for Dichondra Lawns:
Dichondra needs as much care as most grass lawns for a neat appearance.   It needs regular, thorough waterings to maintain a deep root system, especially during hot weather.  It also prefers frequent light fertilizing.  Fertilize with the lightest application recommended, according to label directions, once every 2 to 3 weeks. 

Depending on what you want your Dichondra lawn to look like,  you can mow it frequently, seldom or not at all.  Grown in full sun and given lots of use, Dichondra stays low and even, needing mowing infrequently, if ever.  Dichondra grown in the shade or given little use may need frequent mowing to give it an even appearance.

Mowing to 3/4” height (higher during hot weather to avoid stress) will encourage a small leafed, even Dichondra lawn, but you will need to mow it regularly. You can mow at a 1-1/2 to 2” height more infrequently; this will promote a less consistent texture and leaves of varying sizes.

If you mow Dichondra too close, you’ll get a scalped look; top dress it with a light  mulch to help it come back.

Dichondra flea beetle can devastate Dichondra lawns.  The first signs of the disease are browning leaves with engraved lines where tissue has been gnawed.  To control, apply diazinon as soon as possible, following label directions carefully.

The best weed control is simply to keep you Dichondra lawn growing so luxuriantly that weeds cannot get a root hold.  If you do find weeds, hand pull them before they have a chance to spread.  If you decide to use chemical weed controls, it is very important to purchase a product especially formulated for use on specific Dichondra lawn weeds.  Follow the label directions exactly, as Dichondra can be considered a broad-leafed weed and general broad-leafed weed chemicals would also kill Dichondra.

Moisturizing lotion with a relaxing scent
Size: 33 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This body lotion does a great job keeping skin moisturized without feeling heavy or greasy. The formula absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling soft and smooth after applying. The lavender scent is light and relaxing, which makes it nice to use in the evening or before bed. It’s not overpowering and fades to a subtle fragrance after a while. The lotion works well for sensitive skin and provides long-lasting hydration. The large bottle is also convenient since it lasts a long time with regular use. Overall, this is a good moisturizing lotion if you’re looking for something gentle with a calming scent.

Great choice
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
After I suffered a second-degree burn from steam, I was told by my doctor that I would have to keep my new fresh skin sun-blocked for up to a year to avoid any scarring or hyper pigmentation. This has been a great selection as it is a roll-on, Which helps a lot with preventing messes that can happen with traditional sunblock bottles. I also like that it is easy to travel with, and the fact that it is zinc based.

My favorite new mineral sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favorite new mineral sunscreen! I've been searching for years for a product that is easy to apply, not messy, and doesn't show up too white. This roll-on is the perfect solution. I keep it near the front door and quickly roll the sunscreen on my hands, arms, and chest before leaving the house. The sunscreen applies so quickly and uniformly-- there are no bare spots or messy globs to rub in. Also, the roll-on keeps the sunscreen from oozing out of the tube and getting all over everything. Finally, the roll-on method also eliminates the frustration of having half-filled tubes and pumps where you can't even access the sunscreen when the tube gets low. Here's hoping this doesn't happen with the roll-on. Thank you Sun Bum for creating this wonderful product. I also love the reasonable price.
