Silver Ponyfoot (Dichondra argentea) Plant Profile!

Posted on December 13, 2011September 14, 2022 by Austin Native Landscaping

We are starting to create individual Texas native plants profiles and today we will put the spotlight on Silver Ponyfoot (Dichondra argentea).

From the entry:

“Silver Ponyfoot is a wonderful ground cover for drought tolerant landscaping. This attractive Texas native plant is an evergreen, disease and pest resistant and will thrive in both full sun and part shade. We rely on silver ponyfoot in many of our xeriscape flowerbed designs. Sprinkle it in the front of your waterwise landscape and between other plants. With time it will form a thick silvery mat that will beautifully complement other elements of your choice. Works beautiful in pots, where the plant gracefully spills over.”

 

What do you think about Silver Ponyfoot? Do you grow it yourself? Pictures or insights to share?
