Quick Facts :: Growing Tips

Full and Afternoon Sun Morning Sun and Afternoon Shade Xeric Western Only  Legend

Description:

1/2” x 8” wide (cutting propagated). The tiny finger-like leaves grow in a tight mat resembling a small blue-green sea anemone that has anchored itself in your garden. Fuchsia-colored flowers smother the plant in very early spring. Tufted Ice Plant seems to enjoy a hot, full sun position in the rockery, where winter snows melt quickly. But don’t keep too dry during the summer heat.

Zones 5-9.

Special Notes:

Simply irresistible jewel-like magenta flowers. Choice and rare South African native!
