Silver Falls Dichondra (Dichondra argentea 'Silver Falls') is one of the most elegant and versatile trailing foliage plants available, producing long, cascading silver-white stems blanketed in small, coin-shaped leaves with a remarkable metallic shimmer. The intensely silvery foliage — created by a natural coating of fine reflective hairs — catches the light beautifully, creating a waterfall effect of shimmering silver as the trailing stems spill gracefully from containers, hanging baskets, and raised beds.

These Professional Grade 4" plants are grown with heritage practices, developing vigorous trailing root systems that establish quickly and produce dramatic cascading growth throughout the warm season. Silver Falls Dichondra is a premier thriller-spiller for mixed containers, window boxes, and hanging baskets, where its extraordinary trailing habit and luminous foliage complement flowering annuals and perennials beautifully. It thrives in full sun to part shade and is exceptionally heat and drought tolerant once established — making it one of the easiest and most rewarding foliage plants for summer displays.

  • Extraordinary Cascading Silver Foliage: Produces trailing stems of up to 4–5 feet, creating a stunning waterfall of shimmering silver-white foliage that is unmatched in the container and hanging basket world for pure visual drama.
  • Exceptional Heat & Drought Tolerance: The fine reflective leaf hairs that give the foliage its signature silver color also act as a natural heat and moisture shield — allowing this plant to thrive in full sun and hot, dry conditions that challenge most foliage plants.
  • Perfect Thriller-Spiller for Containers & Baskets: An ideal spiller component for mixed containers, window boxes, raised planters, and hanging baskets — the cascading silver stems beautifully complement bold-colored annuals, tropicals, and flowering perennials.
  • Low Maintenance with Season-Long Visual Impact: Requires minimal care once established — simply water regularly and allow the plant to trail freely. No deadheading, staking, or shaping needed to maintain a spectacular appearance.
  • Versatile Sun or Shade Performer: Performs beautifully in both full sun and part shade, retaining its signature silver color across a wide range of light conditions — a rare quality among foliage plants.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil and moderate watering. Established plants are quite heat and drought tolerant; avoid overwatering and waterlogged soil. Grown as a warm-season annual in most climates; may overwinter in USDA zones 10–11. Trailing stems reach 4–5 feet in length over a single season. An ideal spiller for mixed containers, hanging baskets, window boxes, and elevated raised beds where the cascading silver foliage can be fully appreciated.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.
