Fantastic company, amazing lawn alternative

I have had my Ruschia Nana lawn alternative for almost a year and I am very pleased with the results and experience with CA Lawn Alternatives. I have a toddler and wanted a durable lawn, and the staff were able to address any questions prior to ordering. The product arrived quickly and in great condition. Planting instructions were clear, and I got an email reminder to fertilize in the spring (this was much appreciated). I have had very little plug loss, even with a nocturnal animal digging up the plugs for grubs and worms!

The Ruschia Nana is a gorgeous lawn alternative, and my toddler loves it! They flower profusely, and we enjoy watching the bees. The plants are comfortable with bare feet or laying on. I highly recommend this company, and replacing lawn with Ruschia Nana.

Fantastic!

I researched the best product I could use in my dog pen. My dogs are small. I ordered four trays of Ruschia Nana. The plants arrived in excellent condition, and the directions provided were excellent. I planted them two weeks ago, and they are doing well. I will be ordering more in a few months.

2.5 weeks in and fingers crossed!

Lots of research lead me to ordering these plants from this company. I took some time last winter and followed their instructions to amend our clay soil with mushroom compost and gypsum. I finally got them all planted within 2 weeks spaced 8 inch apart. They arrived quickly once ordered and were thoughtfully packed. So far I've been watering them twice a day and they are still chunky and green with a flower here and there. I look forward to watching them grow this spring/summer.
