<img src="http://www.pithandvigor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/KoreanGrassRockBig1-580x580.jpg"> |
|||
Slow growing at 20cm a year. But quite hardy, drought/acid tolerant and fine with shade. Makes these interesting clumps. A bit expensive. |

|||
Might not be so good for heavy foot traffic areas. But does well in shade (under lemon tree?). |
|||

==Thyme== |

|||
Low growing verities. Less than 1/2 and inch high. Flowers. |
|||
No mowing, fertilizing, thatching or watering. Drought tolerant. Bees. Light foot traffic. |
|||
[http://www.thymegarden.com/Groundcovers thymegarden.com Infos] |
|||
* "Since cross pollination is a concern with thyme, it is very uncommon to find seeds for low-growing varieties like Elfin Thyme or Wooly Thyme which will be propagated by cuttings" |
|||
* "we do offer four varieties of thyme by seed that will show uniform traits: Mother of Thyme, Creeping Thyme, Magic Carpet Thyme, and Mixed Creeping Thyme." |
|||
[http://www.drought-smart-plants.com/thyme-lawn.html drought-smart-plants.com Infos] |
|||
* "Some of the best types of thyme for a thyme lawn are Thymus serpyllum 'Elfin' (Elfin thyme), Thymus coccineus (Red Creeping thyme) and Thymus pseudolanuginosus (Wooly thyme)." |
|||
* "I had no luck germinating thyme seeds last year. Cuttings are the normal way to propagate it. Seed might work if you have better controlled conditions than I did." |
|||
==Arenaria (Sandwort)== |
|||

|||
==Corsican Mint== |
|||
<img src="https://linniew.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/corsican-mint.jpg" width="30%"/> |
|||
Probably not great for a lawn and needs water. But I want some anyway. Seems like Babies Tears. |
|||
==Houttuynia Cordata / Chameleon Plant / Fish Mint== |
|||
* Comes in a variegated variety. |
|||
* Edible, used to treat conditions like hypertension |
|||
* Probably too big for a real lawn alternative |
|||
* Invasive |
|||
* Is this what mum is already growing? |
|||

==Other Things== |
|||
===Pink Muhly Grass=== |
|||
Tall pink stuff. |
|||
===Bassia scoparia=== |
|||
Small bright green bushes that turn red. |
|||
In NSW the parent species is a weed. Except- "The subspecies Bassia scoparia subspecies trichophylla (commonly known as summer cypress or burning bush) is not declared, and can still be found in older gardens. " |

Misc[edit | edit source]
10 Perennials That Will Serve Your Garden for Years - Chayote looks interesting (Might be more commonly called Chokos). Seems to need an entire fruit planted.
Niwaki
"ethnobotan"
Lightwell[edit | edit source]
Lawn Ideas[edit | edit source]
General[edit | edit source]
www.stepables.com This Pinterest
Korean Velvet Grass (Zoysia Tenuifolia)[edit | edit source]
Slow growing at 20cm a year. But quite hardy, drought/acid tolerant and fine with shade. Makes these interesting clumps. A bit expensive.
- tranquilhavens.com.au - 10x100mm pots = $75 - Inc Shipping - $0.075 per mm²
- Bambooland.com.au - 120mm pots, $4.50 each (10 for $45) - Not including shipping which requires a quote... - $0.0375 per mm² (plus unknown shipping costs)
- Ebay - 10x140mm - $90 inc shipping. $0.0642 per mm²
Dwarf Mondo Grass[edit | edit source]
Ophiopogon japonicus 'Nanus'
Might not be so good for heavy foot traffic areas. But does well in shade (under lemon tree?).
TranquilHeavens.com.au - 50 plants for $32. 100 for $45. inc postage.
Thyme[edit | edit source]
Low growing verities. Less than 1/2 and inch high. Flowers.
No mowing, fertilizing, thatching or watering. Drought tolerant. Bees. Light foot traffic.
- "Since cross pollination is a concern with thyme, it is very uncommon to find seeds for low-growing varieties like Elfin Thyme or Wooly Thyme which will be propagated by cuttings"
- "we do offer four varieties of thyme by seed that will show uniform traits: Mother of Thyme, Creeping Thyme, Magic Carpet Thyme, and Mixed Creeping Thyme."
drought-smart-plants.com Infos
- "Some of the best types of thyme for a thyme lawn are Thymus serpyllum 'Elfin' (Elfin thyme), Thymus coccineus (Red Creeping thyme) and Thymus pseudolanuginosus (Wooly thyme)."
- "I had no luck germinating thyme seeds last year. Cuttings are the normal way to propagate it. Seed might work if you have better controlled conditions than I did."
Arenaria (Sandwort)[edit | edit source]
Probably want the Arenaria alfacariensis species. Seems smaller.
brass buttons (Leptinella squalida)[edit | edit source]
Corsican Mint[edit | edit source]
Probably not great for a lawn and needs water. But I want some anyway. Seems like Babies Tears.
Houttuynia Cordata / Chameleon Plant / Fish Mint[edit | edit source]
- Comes in a variegated variety.
- Edible, used to treat conditions like hypertension
- Probably too big for a real lawn alternative
- Invasive
- Is this what mum is already growing?
Knawel Cushion[edit | edit source]
Maybe not a 'lawn' but want some.
Other Things[edit | edit source]
Pink Muhly Grass[edit | edit source]
Tall pink stuff.
Bassia scoparia[edit | edit source]

In NSW the parent species is a weed. Except- "The subspecies Bassia scoparia subspecies trichophylla (commonly known as summer cypress or burning bush) is not declared, and can still be found in older gardens. "
