Vibrant colors for stunning rock gardens and borders
The Proven Winners® Ocean Sunset™ Violet Flare Ice Plant boasts incredibly vibrant colors that bring life and warmth to any landscape. Its intense hues are perfect for rock gardens and borders, creating a striking visual contrast that catches the eye. This plant is not only visually appealing, but it's also remarkably resilient, making it an excellent choice for those seeking low-maintenance options that can thrive even in the toughest conditions.
What sets this plant apart is its impressive drought tolerance once established, ensuring that it can withstand periods of dry weather without any fuss. Plus, it’s heat tolerant, meaning it will shine brightly in those hot summer months. If that weren’t enough, it also resists deer, making it a great addition to your garden without the worry of hungry herbivores. Adding this beauty to your outdoor space not only enhances your garden’s aesthetic but also contributes to a more durable and sustainable landscape.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil to ensure healthy growth.
2. Watering: Water the plant thoroughly after planting and then allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Once established, it requires very little additional watering.
3. Pruning: Prune back any dead or spent flowers in late spring to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Removing any dead leaves can help improve air circulation.
4. Fertilizing: Fertilize lightly in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer to support growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as delosperma thrives in poorer soils.
