I'm researching very flat ground cover for a path to a rarely-used gate.




Dymondia looked like a winner until I got to the part where it's supposed to spread slowly.




The path is approx 3' x 6' +-




I wasn't going to use $tepping $tone$ as well, but if the ground cover is REALLY slow-spreading, may have to.




QUESTION #1: In your experience/opinion, Dymonida slow spreading, T/F.




QUESTION #2. If slow, how many flats would I need so it wouldn't take forever to fill in.




QUESTION #3. Am I putting cart before horse in concentrating on Dymondia. Other


suggestions? FLAT & hardy.




Won't tolerate heavy traffic but otherwise an excellent choice.

Tx. Virtually NO traffic.

My remaining concern, per earlier message, is how slowly it is said to spread.
T/F?

Also, how many flats would I need to buy to fill in? Area, per earlier message,
***The path is approx 3' x 6' +- ***

Any experience out there?

TIA
