Characteristics of DELOSPERMA Suntropics ® Hot Pink.
This perennial purslane, which is highly resistant to drought and sea spray, has a spreading, creeping habit that makes it an excellent ground cover. From May to October-November, it produces a colourful cushion of pink with a white to cream centre.
How do I use DELOSPERMA Suntropics ® Hot Pink?
This perennial purslane is highly resistant to drought and sea spray, and is hardy to -5°C. It flourishes easily in large pots on a balcony or terrace, but in winter it needs to be protected indoors, in a conservatory or greenhouse, to preserve its health. In warmer regions, it can be used on a slope, a rockery or at the top of a low wall, in the company of dianthus or wall campanulas.
What advice do you have for growing DELOSPERMA Suntropics ® Hot Pink successfully?
This perennial purslane is very adaptable: it will do well in ordinary, fairly dry, light, well-drained soil, or more generally in poor, stony soil, provided it is light and well-drained. However, it is crucial to avoid excess moisture in winter, as this could prove fatal.
