Yeah, it as gallon pots and not 4" for the starts. We got them from Rockledge Gardens. Kind of surprised that they had that many in stock at one time. Called Maple Street at the time and they were out but expecting a shipment soon. Maple Street didn't want to take a pre-order.

Hand watered every every 2 days early on and tapered that back over the course of 2 months during establishment. April and May last year were super dry and hotter than average so watering during establishment was necessary. But now that the stuff is established it is mostly on natural water except if something else in that zone is newly planted and we use the broadcast irrigation for watering during establishment phase. Once established the stuff is almost cactus level drought tolerant. 

New growth is soft but the runners are hard. Not the softest surface for bare feet. Feels better than scratchy St. Augustine.
