Maybe because it's such a small leaved plant the word acre doesn't seem to apply? Approximately the amount of land tillable by one man behind an ox in one day. No, it won't cover an acre in one day.
This really is a great plant as it will grow just about anywhere, doesn't do well in very dry dense shade though. I find it interesting that it does well in any other light conditions combined with very dry. What an unusual, easy care plant. Another bonus, it will spread easily, but just as easily can be removed from areas you don't want it because it's roots are so shallow. What a great plant.
