Jewel of the Desert Peridot Ice Plant (Delosperma 'Jewel of the Desert Peridot')
Jewel of the Desert Peridot Ice Plant carpets the ground with daisy-like lemon yellow blooms with white centers from late spring through fall. Dense, low, succulent foliage forms a bright, drought-tolerant mat ideal for hot, sunny sites and rockery edges.
Distinctive Features
Extra-long bloom window with glossy, two-tone flowers held above tight, evergreen mats. Heat and drought resilience, plus excellent drainage tolerance, make it reliable where many perennials struggle.
Growing Conditions
- Sun Exposure: Full sun for best flowering and tight habit.
- Soil: Very well drained, gritty or sandy soil; avoid winter-wet sites.
- Water: Low once established; water sparingly and allow soil to dry between cycles.
- USDA Hardiness Zones: 5 to 9.
- Mature Size: 0.25 to 0.5 ft tall and 1 to 1.5 ft wide.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Vivid lemon yellow flowers create high-impact color in sunny, dry spots.
- Groundcover: Spreads into a low, blooming carpet between stones and along paths.
- Rock Gardens: Thrives in gravelly soils and heat-reflective sites.
- Edging: Neat, low habit defines bed lines without flopping.
- Containers: Performs in shallow troughs and pots with sharp drainage.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Water lightly during establishment, then only during extended drought.
- Pruning: Shear lightly after peak flushes to refresh and maintain density.
- Fertilizing: Feed sparingly in spring; excess nutrients reduce flowering and compactness.
- Mulching: Use mineral mulch or gravel; avoid organic mulches that hold moisture at crowns.
- Notes: Ensure rapid winter drainage to prevent crown rot and maintain evergreen foliage.
Why Choose Jewel of the Desert Peridot Ice Plant?
- Season-Long Color: Extended bloom with clear lemon yellow petals and white centers.
- Drought Tough: Excellent performance with minimal water once established.
- Low Profile: Stays compact and tidy along paths and hardscape.
- Heat and Sun Ready: Flourishes where many perennials fade.
- Easy Care: Minimal inputs when sited with sharp drainage.
Plant in the sunniest, best-drained spot you have, and use gravel topdressing to keep crowns dry and flowering at their best.
