Chloris Dandyana Var. Stolonifera

Chloris dandyana var. stolonifera is a low-growing perennial grass known for its dense, mat-forming growth habit. It thrives in well-drained soils and full to partial sunlight, making it a popular choice for erosion control and ornamental landscaping. This variety is characterized by its fine, bluish-green leaves and small, inconspicuous flowers that appear in late spring. Its stoloniferous nature allows it to spread rapidly, forming a thick carpet that suppresses weeds and retains soil moisture. Despite its modest appearance, it plays an important role in stabilizing soil and supporting local wildlife.
