Silver Carpet - Dymondia margaretae

Silver Carpet forms a dense, low-growing mat of silver-green foliage that creates a clean, modern look in any sunny garden. Its toughness, drought tolerance, and ability to handle foot traffic make it one of the best lawn alternatives for low-maintenance landscaping.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Silver Carpet

✔ Beautiful silver foliage - Brightens the garden and adds contrast to surrounding plants.
✔ Extremely drought tolerant - Thrives in hot, dry areas with minimal watering.
✔ Handles light foot traffic - Ideal for pathways, stepping stones, and lawn substitution.
✔ Weed-suppressing mat - Forms a dense carpet that naturally blocks weeds.
✔ Low maintenance - Stays neat and compact without pruning or feeding.

🏡 How to Use Silver Carpet in Your Garden

✅ Lawn alternative - Perfect for small areas where turf is hard to grow.
✅ Between stepping stones - Handles foot traffic and softens hardscape lines.
✅ Rock gardens and slopes - Holds soil in place and adds texture.
✅ Borders and front edges - Creates a clean, tidy edge that stays low and uniform.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Spacing: Plant 20 to 30cm apart for a fast-forming carpet. For quicker coverage and a thicker mat, adding additional plants closer together is recommended.

  • Best Planting Time: Can be planted year-round, best season is spring or early summer.

  • Mulching & Fertilising: This plant thrives naturally and does not require mulching or fertiliser to stay healthy.
