It blooms in late spring and early summer, and the flowers practically cover the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe evergreen, succulent foliage forms a mat just 2 to 4 inches tall that spreads about 2 feet wide over two years and keeps growing after that. It shines in rock gardens, on slopes, along walls and in containers, and it takes heat and drought in stride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA low, flat, spreading succulent mat about 2 to 4 inches tall and 20 to 24 inches wide. Leaves are small, fleshy, cylindrical to finger-shaped, about half an inch to an inch long, bright to medium green with a slightly glistening surface. Daisy-like flowers about 1.5 to 2 inches across have many narrow, glossy petals in rose red, deepening to a large fuchsia eye around a small pale center. At peak bloom the flowers crowd so closely that the green mat is almost hidden beneath a carpet of color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt loves the same hot sun and lean, gravelly soil as lavender, making a low, evergreen carpet at the base of lavender plants that blooms just before lavender opens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun in lean, very well-drained soil, such as a rock garden, slope or gravel bed; water sparingly, since wet soil, especially in winter, leads to rot. Hardy in zones 6-10 with excellent drainage. No pruning needed; it stays evergreen and keeps spreading slowly over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delosperma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rose red with a large fuchsia eye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright green, evergreen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low, spreading succulent mat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–4 in tall × 20–24 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
