Overview
Kurapia (Lippia nodiflora) is a drought-tolerant groundcover featuring tiny white flowers. Thriving in full sun, it efficiently covers areas up to 18 square feet per plant. Requiring minimal maintenance, it stands 1-2 inches tall, discouraging weeds with dense growth. Ideal for water-conscious landscapes, it needs only occasional mowing. Hardy in USDA zones 7-11, once established, it tolerates light foot traffic and reduces irrigation needs by over 60%.
