It's a good ground cover in shade...and it's drought tolerant which is the best trait.

"California dreamin'" again! It's strictly a houseplant, here, and somewhat fallen out of favor--needs too much light for the modern home in the desert.

It's mostly used in court yards and semi-shaded areas around apartment complexes here.

It really is a very nice ground cover in sem-shaded areas. In full sun it bleaches out and burns.
Yes, I've been on GoY since Sept of 2008. Wow! Over 10 years!
