Variety Characteristics:
- Lampranthus spectabilis, commonly known as Trailing Ice Plant, is a perennial evergreen succulent belonging to the Aizoaceae family, native to South Africa. The plant reaches approximately 30 cm in height with dense branching. Its fleshy, oppositely arranged leaves are distinctively triangular, gray-green in color, with a smooth surface adorned by fine speckles, resembling pine needles. The flowers, measuring 4–6 cm in diameter, bloom singly at the branch tips. The petals exhibit a silky sheen, with colors ranging from purple-red to white. Flowering occurs primarily from spring to early summer. The blooms open fully under sunlight and close at night or on cloudy days, with each individual flower lasting 5–7 days. This variety thrives in full sun and warm, arid conditions, demonstrating strong drought tolerance but sensitivity to waterlogging. While cold-sensitive, it requires partial shade to protect against intense summer sun. Well-draining, fertile sandy loam soil is ideal. With rapid growth, lush foliage, and vibrant blooms, it is equally suited for container gardening, landscape design, and greenbelt plantings, making it a top-tier ornamental plant valued for both foliage and floral appeal.
