Been here a while also. It does fit the description. This dichondra will
make it through the winter as a houseplant. In a shallow container it
eventually makes a handsome mound or silver foliage with rounded, smooth
leaves. After a while it hangs over the side of the container as a vine
though I think it would act as a ground cover where is was warm enough for it
to survive. Mine has never flowered though many things do not flower here
that need a long season or lots of heat.
