Talk about a show stopper! The large 1 ½” flowers really stand out above the neat, low growing foliage. These are one of my absolute favorite flowers and I grow them every year. They have interesting succulent foliage, and bloom all season long. Ice Plants are great for containers, borders, or anywhere you would like to enjoy their breath-taking colors. (Or make the neighbors envious!) The Ice Plant establishes itself quickly which also makes it an excellent ground cover, and is able to tolerate hot, dry conditions with ease.
