4 in. D x 3.5 in. H Non-Fragrant Pink Ice Plant with Pink Flowers (5-Pack)

Description

Pink Ice Plant is a peculiar plant with cylindrical, translucent leaves covered in tiny ice-like crystals that sparkle like diamonds in the Sunlight. When the pink flowers bloom, they cover the entire plant like a pink blanket. It can be used for large-scale ground cover or hung in hanging planters. The remarkable feature is that it requires very little water to grow abundantly, making it a truly low-cost and low-maintenance choice. And when you forget to water it, the leaves quietly turn red, which is a delightful surprise. This plant is easy to grow and thrives in abundant Sunlight. It is tolerant of high temperatures, drought and frost. It prefers well-drained soil with 50% sand, gravel or pumice. In the early stages of planting, water it moderately to promote growth, but avoid water logging to prevent rot. Once the plant is established, it can tolerate several days of drought and its foliage becomes even more vibrant. That’s why it can replace lawns as ground cover, saving water and eliminating the need for trimming. If you choose to propagate it manually, you can cut the stems into 2-in. sections for easy rooting.
