The best time to sow Dichondra is from March through May; midsummer planting will germinate faster but will need careful, frequent waterings. Planting early will produce sturdy root systems that can take mid-summer heat and some water stress. For New Lawns: Prepare the seed bed as you would for a new grass lawn. Dichondra seeds sown in spring do not need mulch; just rake the seed gently and roll it with a light roller. If you sow in the summer, use just enough of a light mulch of damp peat moss to cover. This will help keep the seedbed moist.
