Took them right down to the ground. This was the second (and last) time I tried planting them.

After much research I decided to use them in my front yard to replace 20 years of mulch layers around our pindo palm. Goney’s was the only nursery I found that could order them from a grower here in Florida. $6 x 100 plants! Paid a crew to do the labor ( more than the cost of the plants)’.
After a few weeks weeds started coming up between them. Then the peanuts filled nice and tight but weeds continued. I have a contract with a company to do hand weeding. They kind a look like clover with little yellow flowers. If I had to do it over again I would not have gotten them. They will perpetually be a weeding nightmare.
We were told we could not remove the dirt buildup from the all the mulch as it protected the roots of the pindo so I was looking for a grass replacement option. They are drought resistant so don’t require much water that’s why The Villages Uses them. But of course they have gardening crews that keep everything nice. Good luck: might want to try a different option.
