Ice Plants are native to dry areas in South Africa but are amazingly hardy in North America, provided they have very well-drained soil. This species forms a spreading carpet of succulent evergreen leaves, bearing starry yellow flowers for months on end. Leaves turn maroon during winter. Prefers some afternoon shade. Nice in a gravel scree or alpine trough.
