use bulb planter to cut "plugs" in existing patches of dichondra and plant in turf lawn to increase area of dichondra. Take "plugs" from turf lawn and turn upside down before inserting into holes left in dichondra lawn. Water deeply and have good drainage. Grows best in summer in Hawkes Bay and may look sparse in winter but comes right again next summer! Only lawn to stay green in Hawkes Bay without too much watering!
