Tips from Fran
Nice little plant for a small fairy garden or a small container.however, this is a super cool border plant around smaller perennials and shrubs.
* ~This can be used as a beautiful lawn substitute as long as it is used for ornamental purposes, not functional, like croquet.
* ~This plant can take paths, courtyards, patios and garden stairs with ease. However, it grows in a clumping fashion instead of creeping, like our high traffic plants, and can get scuffed off if not careful. So that should be something to look at as you are deciding.
* ~This plant can be used under trees and shrubs if enough light is given. It will be thin and spindly if there is not enough light to the area.
