Delosperma Fire Spinner

Delosperma Fire Spinner has fantastic tricolour flowers in icy white, hot magenta, and glowing orange.

The shockingly fabulous colour combination of Delosperma Fire Spinner offers fiery orange petals morphing into hot magenta and then cooling down into icy white punctuated by the yellow stamens all against apple green foliage. Ice plants are long-blooming and carefree succulent mat-forming perennials similar to sedums that thrive in heat, drought and nearly any well-drained soil. Very hardy but should be protected from winter wet either with very well drained soil or in the rain shadow of a house or other structure. Deer resistant. Cultivar name: ‘P001s’
