Care Instructions
Thrives in average to very lean, well-drained soils. Best in full sun. Space 18 to 24 in. apart as groundcover; closer for faster fill. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; take care not to overwater. Reduce frequency, once established. Fertilize sparingly.
History
Exhibiting a dramatic color breakthrough for the hardy ice plants, this unique cultivar traces its ancestry to the Eastern Cape of South Africa. This plant Select® winner was selected for outstanding garden performance throughout the high plains and inter-mountain areas of the Rocky Mountain region.
Lore
Plant Select® is a collaboration of Colorado State University, Denver Botanic Gardens, and the green industry, helping gardeners and horticultural professionals transform the American landscape to a vibrancy inspired by our western regional landscape. Unlike species of iceplants (such as Carpobrutus edulis) which have been identified as invasive in some states, Delosperma cooperi is a beautiful, non-invasive alternative.
