Drosanthemum (Dew Flower)

I remember someone talking about this in the not-too-distant past but have done a search and cannot find it, so maybe using an alternative name. Here is my Drosanthemum (Dew Flower) in bloom today trailing down the little wall across the patio ... we just love it as it 'glitters' in the sunlight ...

 

Nice! I also have one that has done well, often flowering when others stuggled. How long have you had it?

 

Hi my lovely Stephen. Had them about three years me'thinks? Just cut it back and it grows back well.

 

Nice! we've had ours for about a year and a half, it was actually a snippet from a plant being grown in the lower part of our town (they grow Lampranthus and Carpobrotus down there, so it always looks good!)

I often wonder if they do any other colours of Drosanthemum, because mines a similar colour to yours.

 

Is this a Drosanthemum?
I've had this a while but lost the label, this was last year.

 

here's those Carpobrotus and Lampys

 

That's Delosperma sutherlandii Pete

 

OK, thanks Stephen.

 

Stephen, isn't what you have Hottentot Figs?

 

yes, Carpobrotus spp also known as Hottentot Fig.
