Plant in full sun to light shade in a well-drained soil and irrigate infrequently to occasionally - this is a summer dry drought tolerant plant! Tolerates cold temperatures down to at least 25°F and handles inland desert high temperatures. This is smallest form of the species and is a form that has been recommended by some as a grass lawn replacement plant, though it is best between stepping stones so not directly walked upon. We also grow the straight species, which is itself a pretty small mat forming plant but it has slightly longer and thicker leaves. There is more information about the species on our listing of Ruschia lineolata. We also long grew another species of Ruschia, the larger Ruschia uncinata, that likewise handles these hot conditions.
