Carpobrotus Rossii (Pink Carpobrotus)
Carpobrotus Rossii is a low-growing, ground-covering succulent known for its vibrant pink to magenta flowers. The succulent, fleshy leaves form a dense mat that spreads rapidly, making it ideal for covering bare ground, slopes, or coastal gardens.
The striking pink flowers bloom profusely from spring to summer, adding bright colour to arid or well-drained areas. This hardy and low-maintenance plant thrives in sunny, dry conditions and is well-suited to drought-tolerant and coastal gardens.
Carpobrotus Rossii is perfect for erosion control, providing ground cover in areas with sandy or poor soils.
