Mauve Ice Plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum 'Mauve')

Got a hot, dry spot where nothing thrives? The ice plant turns problem areas into a carpet of colour. This succulent ground cover, known to many gardeners as pigface, spreads quickly into a dense mat and erupts with shimmering mauve daisy-like flowers that sparkle in full sun.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Mauve Ice Plant

✔ Shimmering Mauve Flowers - silky blooms that glisten in the sunshine.

✔ Succulent Toughness - fleshy foliage stores water for true drought resistance.

✔ Fast Ground Cover - quickly knits into a weed-suppressing mat.

✔ Coastal Champion - laughs at salt spray, wind and sandy soil.

✔ No-Fuss Care - practically thrives on neglect once established.

🏡 How to Use Mauve Ice Plant in Your Garden

✅ Sunny Banks - stabilises slopes and embankments with living colour.

✅ Retaining Walls - cascades over edges in a curtain of succulent foliage.

✅ Coastal Strips - ideal for beachside verges and exposed frontages.

✅ Rockeries and Pots - fills gaps and spills from containers beautifully.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun is essential for dense growth and maximum flowering; needs free-draining soil.
  • Spacing: Plant 40-50cm apart; plants spread quickly to close the gaps.
  • Best Planting Time: Spring or autumn in most areas; avoid planting into cold, wet winter soil.
  • Watering & Care: Water to establish, then only during long dry spells. Trim back any straggly growth after flowering to keep the mat dense.

❔ FAQs About Mauve Ice Plant

When does it flower?
The main show is spring into summer, when the mat is covered in mauve blooms that open widest on bright sunny days.

Will it survive drought?
Yes, its succulent leaves make it one of the most drought-tolerant ground covers available, perfect for waterwise gardens.

How do I cover a large area?
Use the pack of 10 tubes planted 40-50cm apart. Its fast, spreading habit means a bank or verge fills in within a season or two.
