One in our Toe Tickler Collection, Red Mountain Delosperma is an exciting new ice plant with dense, low-growing, evergreen, succulent foliage that is covered in glowing, scarlet-red, daisy-like, quilled blooms from early summer until frost!
This plant gets it's name because the foliage is cold to the touch.
At only 2 inches tall and a spread of up to 24 inches, this prostrate groundcover is perfect as a groundcover or border in garden beds, on slopes, and rock gardens combined with other plants that have low water needs. It is perfect for the xeriscape. It is also suitable for container gardening where it makes a colorful soil cover and will spill over the edges of pots. If planted in container use lots of sand and small gravel to insure good drainage.
Being an exceptionally drought tolerant plant when established, Red Mountain is easy to grow in any well drained soil and full sun to part shade. Good drainage is essential. Constantly soggy or wet soils can cause roots and plants to rot. Avoid overwatering. Young plants will require occasional watering during dry spells of summer.
