Origin
The Dichondra argentea 'Silver Falls', also known as the silver pancake plant, has its original habitat in the subtropical climates of Mexico and the southwestern United States. The plant is often found in open, well-drained soils, where it can spread out as a carpet of silver-green leaves.

Characteristics
The Dichondra argentea 'Silver Falls' is a hardy, luxuriant invoice. The plant is recognisable by its silver-grey, almost metallic, leaves which are particularly striking. The leaves form elongated, waterfall-like hanging stems. These stems can grow up to 90 cm long, making the plant an excellent hanging plant. The contrast between the silvery leaves and small, inconspicuous green-yellow flowers during the flowering season gives the plant a unique appearance.

Care
For optimum growth, the Dichondra argentea 'Silver Falls' requires a location with full sun or partial shade. The plant enjoys well-drained, sandy soil, and is quite tolerant of drought. However, during hot summers, the plant needs regular watering to prevent it from drying out. Make sure the plant is not standing in water to prevent root rot. Pruning is not necessary but can help maintain a neat, compact shape.
