Silver Falls Dichondra

Silver Falls™ is a low, strongly trailing dichondra grown for fan-shaped, silver foliage on silver stems. Proven Winners lists a short garden height and a spreading habit, making it useful where foliage can spill over an edge. ## Foliage and use The [Proven Winners profile](https://serv7.provenwinners.com/plants/dichondra/silver-falls-dichondra-argentea) gives a garden height of 2–6 inches, a spread of 18–36 inches, and trails up to 48 inches. It recommends part sun to sun and lists USDA zones 9–11. Use it in hanging baskets, containers, or as a groundcover in warm climates; the silver foliage contrasts well with green or dark-leaved plants. ## Growing conditions The profile describes the plant as heat and drought tolerant. Provide well-drained soil and allow the surface to dry somewhat between waterings once established. In cooler regions it is commonly grown as a seasonal container plant. ## Maintenance Trim long stems when they outgrow their space or become tangled. Deadheading is unnecessary because the plant is grown for foliage. In frost-prone areas, replace it seasonally or protect containers before cold weather.
