Originally Posted By LuLu I will look for it next week. I'll recognize if it's dichondra. BTW you should be OK with dichondra in Albuquerque, as long as you're not west of town.

If I am to understand this correctly, Dichondra is purchasd in a seed similiar to a grass? Or can it be bought in rolls like sod? Also, in a historic crazycroc/laughing place first, you have email.

Originally Posted By LuLu (still delighted) You can purchase dichondra seed here: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/5uuokp" target="_blank">http://tinyurl.com/5uuokp</a> I used to see it in the nurseries in flats, but I haven't seen it for years. I don't think it does well in this climate, at least as a large-scale ground cover, but maybe it does better where you are. Maybe the cold kills the beetles off, I dunno. But I'll check tomorrow, and if I see a gardener - I'll be sure to ask for any advice on it! Wish me luck!
