@gardenfiend Hi 👋 yes it does look interesting n nice. I just saw it in our local park , I couldn’t stop myself taking a pic n find out the name. I will do a research on in n let you know :)
@gardenfiend Myoporum parvifolium grows well in full sun, it layers so one plant will fill a large space if you have time to wait. it will also withstand light foot traffic and is soft and spongy to walk on. The best way to plant a Myoporum lawn would be to buy large quantities in tube stock and then divide it as you need, this will be quite a lot cheaper than laying turf also.
It’s grows pretty quick.
@gardenfiend Keep the water up for the first few months and then it should fend for itself and you can lay down on it.

@gardenfiend There are many different varieties of Myoporum parvifolium that you can use as a lawn substitute, there are large leaf forms for a more textured look and a purple form if you want added colour, it flowers in Summer and may attract bees so beware when walking barefoot.

Hi this looks interesting. How fast does it grow and how invasive. Is it easy to manage
