Native to southern US. Grows 8 inches in my yard. I move it in some places. Love it, love it. Less invasive than Bermuda. Have grown it in my yard 20+years
Good video...🤙 This variety of ground cover is also invasive, so installation locations must also be considered. Slope applications are suggested as it has an intense rooting system and grow deep, so slope holding properties is enhanced by using Lippia.
Hello! The Native Lippia we offer is native to California. There are other types that can be found around the world native to other specific areas. In terms of compatibility, there will be other factors to consider in addition to zones. We recommend reviewing the videos and our product page to know whether the Lippia will be compatible with your lawn. Feel free to give us a call with further questions at 1-800-381-8163.
My concern is if we put it in a right of way when we need to hedge it off the curb if cutting get blown into another bed how likely will it take root elsewhere? In other words how controllable is it?
Someone posted a video on frog fruit ground cover for Florida, so it appears to be able to grow there. If you’re asking if it’s native to Florida, I think the answer is no.
I live near Sacramento and have a 10x10 dirt patch I would like to grow this in. Can frog fruit compete against weeds? Right now I'm fighting with vetch and other native plants and weeds.
