Planting in 5 Simple Steps
Everything you need to establish a healthy, long-lasting Cowboy® Perennial Peanut groundcover.
1
Plan
Use the Plant Calculator to determine spacing.
1 ft = fastest coverage
2 ft = best value
3 ft = economical
2
Prepare
Remove existing weeds, grass, and debris.
Loosen the soil 2-4 inches deep if compacted.
3
Plant
Dig hole slightly larger than the root ball.
Set the plant level with the surrounding soil and firm the soil around the roots.
4
Water
Water immediately after planting.
Keep soil consistently moist during the first 4-6 weeks while plants are establishing.
5
Enjoy
Rhizomes spread outward, connecting plants into a dense, weed-suppressing groundcover.
Continue watering during dry periods until fully established.
Pro Tips
Plant during spring through early fall for fastest establishment.
Choose a location with well-draining soil.
Full sun produces the best flowering and fastest coverage.
Avoid planting into standing water or poor-draining soils.
A light mulch between plants can reduce weeds during establishment.
