Product Description
Delosperma 'Razzle Dazzle' PPAF CPBRAF - Proven Winners® KALEIDOSCOPE Collection (30)ct Flat
Common Name: Hardy Ice Plant
A brilliantly colored series of succulent Delosperma from Proven Winners® Perennials. KALEIDOSCOPE™ Delosperma stand out on the market with large flower sizes and improved cold hardiness. Members of this series have reliably overwintered in Zone 6, West Michigan climates for multiple years prior to selection. These plants are notable for heat and drought tolerance, as well as requiring little to no maintenance. The evergreen foliage creates year-round interest and is useful as a groundcover. Plant widths are measured after two years and they are likely to continue spreading after that.
Bi-color flowers transition from raspberry red tips to fuchsia purple eyes around cream centers.
Delospermas are highly heat and drought tolerant, making them a good choice for waterwise landscapes. They thrive in rock gardens, on slopes, in containers, and in the landscape.
This plant grows best in well-drained, gravelly soil that is not wet in winter. Planting it on a slope will help provide these conditions. Due to its succulent nature, Ice Plant is very drought tolerant. Grow it in a hot, sunny location.

Other Details
The most important part of the plant is its root system. Healthy roots are the foundation of a healthy, vibrant plant. The type of plug container used is based on the specific needs of the plants. Perennials offered as bare root traditionally perform better when planted as bare root.Planted in a specialized mix, potted plants have well established root systems. Top growth stage will vary depending on the current life cycle and time of year when shipped. In Winter and early Spring dormant plants may be shipped. Dormant plants may be planted right away, even before the last frost date.
Most bare root varieties are field grown for at least one season, though Hemerocallis and Hosta are grown for two seasons. The bulk of the soil is removed during the harvesting process and the tops of most varieties are trimmed back to the crown. They are graded, packed in shredded aspen or sphagnum moss and stored in freezers until ready to be shipped.

Plant Spacing: Using the maximum mature spread or width of a plant to guide spacing, ensures space to grow to full size. To fill an area sooner, plant them closer together. Just remember, future thinning or transplanting may be needed.
Water: Keep a close eye on newly planted perennials, especially throughout the first growing year. Most early plant loss is due to too much or too little water!
