Thanks for the kind words. As I said, that is a pretty small area, when you consider that there is a banana in the middle, and another swing bench on the other side of the area. It's in sad shape. Some of my tropicals didn't make it. But it is a water hog, and the thought of DH weed whacking or mowing in there, terrifies me. : O
I should go out there and trim it back from the edge of the concrete pad, but I kind of like the way it looks irregular and jungley in there. You can transplant them trimmings too. Especially since they are like a mat when they grow onto the concrete. Dichondra can be invasive too. It's taking over the little planter in this photo, but I usually place potted plants in there anyway.
Yeah I miss being a kid and tumbling on the dichondra. I'm not that limber these days.
Katlian, my puppy is already marking territory! Has his favorite fence post that he's been marking the last two days! : )
Sure hope robcorreia tries doss' suggestion of that Mondo grass. Doss can you take a photo to show us? I'd sure like to see what it looks like.
