The main varieties of dichondra are divided by foliage color into silvery and green.

  Popular dichondra varieties include: 'Silver Falls': a variety with long, silvery-ash-colored shoots (up to 1.5–2 m), sun-loving, and ideal for pots. 'Emerald Falls': a variety with rounded, bright green leaves and shorter shoots (about 80–90 cm), grows well in shade.

 In ornamental gardening, there are two main and most popular dichondra varieties, prized for their luxurious, cascading shoots: 1. Silver Falls is a cultivar of the dichondra argentea species. Appearance: It has small, rounded leaves covered in fine fuzz, giving them a refined silvery-ash or glaucous hue. Growth habit: It forms longer, thinner, and more graceful stems that can reach 1.5–2 meters in length. Conditions: This cultivar is very sun-loving. In shade, it loses its unique silvery sheen and becomes greener, and the crown becomes more sparse. It tolerates heat and short-term drought well.

 Before sowing, dichondra must be soaked. You can soak it in wet disks. You can do this in the evening, and sow it in the morning. We plant the seeds to a depth of 0.5 cm. The soil should be moist and also sprinkle with water from above. The shoots should appear on the 5-7th day. It happens that they need to think, this happens due to lack of moisture, but please do not soak the seeds for too long, it is better to monitor the soil moisture. After the first true leaves appear, if necessary, you can transplant them into a volume of 200-250 ml.
