Delosperma Jewel of Desert Series 'Garnet' PP23471

 Delosperma Jewel of Desert Series 'Garnet' PP23471, commonly known as Iceplant, is a hardy, drought-tolerant perennial prized for its vibrant, long-lasting blooms. This low-growing succulent forms a dense mat of fleshy, green foliage that serves as an excellent ground cover. Its striking daisy-like flowers boast a rich, deep red hue with a golden-yellow center, creating a dazzling contrast that attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies. Blooming continuously from spring through fall, 'Garnet' provides months of color in rock gardens, borders, and containers, thriving best in full sun and well-drained soil.

This variety is exceptionally resilient, tolerating heat, poor soils, and dry conditions, making it an excellent choice for xeriscaping and water-wise gardens. It requires minimal maintenance and is deer-resistant, adding to its appeal for gardeners seeking low-effort beauty. Despite its delicate appearance, 'Garnet' is remarkably cold-hardy, withstanding temperatures down to USDA Zone 5. Whether planted en masse for a carpet of red brilliance or used as an accent in a mixed succulent garden, Delosperma Jewel of Desert 'Garnet' delivers enduring beauty with little care required.
