Can be used as erosion control and soil stabilization when planted on slopes. For most groundcovers, we recommend you plant 6” to 9” spacing. This will allow the plants to grow together quickly, reducing the need for hand weeding. To determine how many plants you will need, using 6” spacing, multiply the number of square footage that you need to plant by 4.0. If you would like your plants to be spaced 9” apart, multiply the number of square footage by 1.8. Example: If you have a 100 square foot area to plant and you would like your plants to be planted 6” apart, you will need to calculate 100 x 4.0 = 400. 400 is the approximate number of plants needed. This plant cannot be shipped to Indiana. Per state law, Indiana and Maryland prohibit importation as they consider this plant a PROHIBITED INVASIVE TERRESTRIAL PLANT. This plant has been found to cause gastrointestinal distress in dogs when ingested. It is best to plant where your dog cannot have access to it.
