Carpobrotus – Pigface / Ice Plant (Carpobrotus spp.)

Carpobrotus, commonly known as Pigface or Ice Plant, is a tough, sun-loving Australian succulent famous for its vibrant daisy-like flowers and dense, spreading habit. It’s one of the easiest groundcovers to grow, thriving in harsh coastal conditions while adding bold colour and erosion control.


🌱 Why Gardeners Love Carpobrotus

Exceptionally hardy - Thrives in heat, drought, wind, and coastal salt spray.
Brilliant flowers - Produces vivid pink, purple, red, or yellow blooms through the warmer months.
Fast-spreading groundcover - Quickly carpets large areas and suppresses weeds.
Edible fruit - The succulent pigface fruit is a traditional bush tucker food.

Rock gardens and slopes - Cascades beautifully over rocks or embankments.
Waterwise gardens - Perfect for drought-tolerant, low-maintenance designs.
