Wandering dew-grass exhibits a low, spreading growth form, often found clinging to rocky substrates with its fuzzy, blue-green leaves. This hardy groundcover adapts to poor soils by forming dense mats, and its fuzzy coat helps retain moisture, reflecting its resilience in arid habitats. Its small, purple flowers peek through the foliage, particularly after rainfall, attracting pollinators and lending a soft, delicate texture to its surroundings.
Plan your green oasis based on your criteria: plant type, pet safety, skill level, sites, and more.

Optimum timing for moving wandering dew-grass is when the renewal of nature begins, typically stretching from the thaw of early spring through the gentle warmth of late spring. Choose a spot with bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. Should relocation be needed, do so with care to avoid root disturbance.
