Delosperma Candystone is a low growing, long flowering perennial with vivid daisy like blooms that shine from late spring through summer. The flowers sit above fleshy, succulent foliage that forms a neat, spreading mat, making it perfect for gravel gardens, rockeries, sunny banks and containers. Candystone thrives in hot, dry spots and adds bright colour with very little fuss. Its steady flowering and compact habit make it a great choice for small spaces and sun drenched areas.

This plant is supplied as a young perennial plug around 3 to 5 cm in size. These smaller plants grow on quickly once planted and usually take around eight to twelve weeks to reach the size of a typical 9 cm growers pot. When your young plant arrives, unpack it straight away, water gently, and place it in a bright, sheltered spot for a short time while it settles. Plant out or pot on as soon as possible, keeping the soil lightly moist while the roots establish. Once settled, it will grow into a healthy, long lasting perennial for your garden.
