myoporum groundcover

We planted myoporum groundcover (parvifolium?) about a year ago. It filled in nicely in only 6 months.

We put in sprinklers and watered twice a week for the first 6 months, then cut to once a week. We fertilized with Milorganite, Joe's favorite.

Soil is sandy, zone is Sunset 17 - Central Coast (Arroyo Grande - Oceano area) and foggy in summer.

We're thinking about cutting watering to once a month and quitting the fertilizer.

Does anyone know how to care for this plant?

Also, somewhere we heard that it is short lived. Is this true, and what does that mean?

I've learned a lot from this site, thank you all.
