Perfect for bare spots where little grows due to either raised tree roots or fibrous roots of palm trees. Also ideal for mixed container gardens or hanging baskets. Feed with a slow-release 14-14-14 granular fertilizer every three months for first year and then none needed afterwards. Cut back periodically to keep growth in check by just yanking at the stems.
