Picture a sunny border edge suddenly covered in bright magenta, daisy-like flowers sitting on fleshy, fresh green leaves. That is this Delosperma in summer: a low, mat-forming ice plant that stays around 10 cm tall and spreads to about 30-40 cm wide. For a full, flowery carpet, plan on 6-8 per square metre. Bees and butterflies love the open flowers, which keep coming from early summer till autumn. Let this green friend spill over a gravel garden, a dry stone wall, a rockery or the edge of a sunny pot, and your hottest spot becomes your happiest one. Seasonal changes may affect whether it arrives in flower.
Give it the sunniest spot you have: in full sun it flowers most freely. Delosperma stores water in its fleshy leaves, so it wants fast-draining, sandy or gravelly soil, and soggy roots are the one thing it really dislikes. Water new plants now and then during their first weeks, after that only in long dry spells, and let pots dry out between drinks. Snip off faded flowers and tidy straggly stems in spring, which keeps the mat dense and fresh. It is hardy, but wet winters are tougher on it than frost, so choose a spot where rain runs off and shelter pots from constant winter rain.
Your order will be hand picked and packed in our strong and sustainable packaging as soon as possible, after which it will be delivered straight from our greenhouse to your door by your chosen carrier. You can follow the journey of your plants via the tracking link you receive in your mail. If you have any questions regarding your order and its shipment, you can get in contact with our support team.
We expect every order to arrive in tip-top shape. We take intensive care of the plants in our greenhouse and use special and as sustainable as possible protective packaging to ship our plants. We also wrote an extensive blog about how to unpack and prepare your plants for growth after shipping. However there are rare occasions where our plants don’t meet their full potential. That’s why all plants are guaranteed for 30 days after arrival, if still in its original nursery pot.
