Great photo, Gary. It certainly shows how successful Dichondra can be as a lawn. Do you have any maintenance tips you can share here? Cheers Geoff

Thanks Geoff and Jenny. I have bought a $12 electric weedeater off trademe and gone around the edges, short back and sides, still happy with it, I will wait for about a year all up until I try some weedkiller, in the meantime will just keep picking out the weeds with a screwdriver. cool.
