Plant Sentry™

Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.

This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Cheerful Jewel Of Desert® Garnet Ice Plant (Delosperma cooperi 'Jewel of Desert Garnet') features showy scarlet blooms with hints of lavender-white and vivid yellow centers. You'll have a lavish flowering display for months from the late spring through frost!

Beautiful cool-toned, blue-green, succulent foliage looks lush and plump, growing just 4 - 6 inches tall, but spreads about a foot wide. Their abundant blooms certainly bring a lot of joy! The textured fleshy leaves can remain evergreen in warm, frost-free climates and form tight weed-blocking mats of greenery!

The long-lasting neon violet petals of these Daisy-like blooms, turn red to the tips for a radiant two-tone effect! You'll love their glamorous appeal, and all the local butterflies and bees will come to sip their nectar and gather pollen all season. However, deer and rabbits rarely bother with these succulent plants.

Planting and Application:

Brighten up the baseline of your garden design with an easy-care flowering succulent. These wide-spreading, low-growing groundcover plants suppress weeds with high style! A single specimen of these long-blooming plants makes a dynamic accent in the Rock Garden, gravel or sandy beds, and throughout sun-parched stretches of ground!

Their hot-hued blooms pick up on the mineral tones from sandstone and punch up rugged western gardens and boulders in the Southwestern US, and Delosperma are also great for Xeriscaping and Fire-wise landscaping! Happily naturalizing throughout sandy, rocky, or gravel beds among other like-water usage plants like Yucca, Hens-and-Chicks, Ornamental Grass, Agave, and Sedum.

Naturalize Delosperma for a great-looking, xeriscaped landscape that works hard to suppress weeds all year long. Jewel Of Desert® Garnet Ice Plant is a wonderful choice to control erosion on slopes and banks. Plant them en masse 6-8 inches apart for a quick fill.

Live along the coast or have sand dunes that need some fire? Plant these salt-tolerant little gems in your Zen Garden of raked sand, fine gravel, or stone (referred to as Karesansui Gardens) for a meditative experience!

Even in mixed planters as a filler and spiller on sunny porches and patios, sunny courtyards, dry Cottage Gardens, and Pollinator borders as edging and front-of-the-border installations! Line a sun-drenched, or parched sidewalk, pathway border, or roadside hell strip with cheerful jewel-tone blossoms and jewel-like succulent foliage!

  • Brilliant Red Daisy-Like Blooms With Yellow Eyes
  • Non-Stop Flower Power Late Spring Through Frost
  • Nectar-Rich Resource for Butterflies & Honey Bees
  • Succulent Dark-Green Foliage Forms Tight Mats
  • Excellent Groundcover, Xeriscaping, Containers, Edging & Erosion

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Requiring full sun for the most blooms and best growth, this mat-forming evergreen perennial performs best in sharply-drained, sandy soil. Water as needed during the first year in the ground to establish a deep, healthy root system using the Finger Test, allowing them to dry out some between waterings. In fact, once their roots are established in your soil...they'll become waterwise!

For the best flowering through the summer, provide some summer watering during prolonged drought and excessive heat. Back off watering in early autumn so they can go into fall a bit drier, that way they can harden off before winter. All plants appreciate a 3-4 inch deep layer of mulch to hold moisture underground and insulate the roots. Mulch also helps keep soil from splashing on and covering the low-growing foliage, for a neater, cleaner look.

If you live in an area that receives heavy snowfall in the winter, it is recommended you protect these succulent perennials with loose row covers or frost blankets.

  • Fast-Growing In Full Sun
  • Requires Well-Drained Soils - Sandy/Gravely Soil Is Best
  • Salt/Coastal-Tolerant & Very Drought Resistant
  • Prune Away Dead Growth In Early Spring
  • Deer & Rabbits Tend to Leave Them Alone
