Wonderlawn Seeds grow Dichondra repens, a low, creeping groundcover with small round to kidney-shaped leaves. It is a single-species lawn alternative rather than a grass mixture.

Quick Grow Facts
-
Plant Type: Perennial broadleaf groundcover / lawn alternative
-
Scientific Name: Dichondra repens
-
Common Names: Wonderlawn, Wondergras and Wondertapyt
-
General Sowing Time: Spring to autumn; use warm conditions and reliable irrigation
-
Position: Full sun, semi-shade or shade
-
Sow Depth: Cover shallowly as directed for your chosen product, then press for firm seed-to-soil contact
-
Sowing Rate: Measure the area in square metres and use the rate stated for your chosen product; rates differ between lawn types and seed forms
-
Temperature: Sow during active warm growth after frost risk has passed; keep the seedbed evenly moist
-
Establishment: Emergence and full coverage are separate stages; allow seedlings to root and the lawn to fill in before regular use
-
Growth Form: Low, creeping, no-mow groundcover
Why Grow Wonderlawn
- Low growth suits slopes, paving gaps and places where mowing is difficult.
- Sun-to-shade tolerance allows use in many lower-traffic garden areas.
- Small leaves spread into a dense green carpet.
- No routine mowing is required.
Growing Notes
- Prepare a fine, firm, weed-free seedbed and keep the top layer moist without puddles.
- After establishment, water deeply and less frequently; constant shallow watering encourages weeds and disease.
- Use for low-to-moderate traffic rather than a sports or heavy-play lawn.
- Do not use a broadleaf lawn herbicide: Wonderlawn is itself a broadleaf groundcover.
