Description

Necklace Vine gets its name from the stacked appearance of the leaves, one on top of the other. This plant comes from South Africa and is fast growing. It can grow to about 18 inches in height and tends to sprawl. It sometimes has leaf margins with red edges which is very showy. Plant in a well-drained soil in full coastal sun to light shade and it needs some protection from midday heat in inland valleys.

Water Saving Tip:

Dig-up patches of weeds and undesirable grasses from turf areas.

Use water to grow the turf you want, not the weeds you don't want! Once you have eliminated what you don't want, add sod or over-seed to repair the bare areas.
