Here’s an orgy, or to put it more chastely, a dance of Delosperma cooperi, common name, hardy ice plant.
This specimen, which grows happily in Einsteinville, is a member of the Aizoaceae family (stone plants), and related to Carpobrotus edulis, the ice plant which spread through California. The ice plants, whether of the type which line Highway 101 or survive New Jersey winters, are of South African origin.
nice site and informative and really colorful…. eye cachee…
i lov this site..
also i love this earth

“flower porn”? okay, strange
really gorgeous flowers
if they originated in south africa, how are they so cold-resistant? that’s so cool (no pun intended)
i love this earth too
i think we could all do with a few (okay, a lot) more flowers in our lives,even if they’re just pictures
just B-E-A-U-TIFUL
Oh yay, I get flower porn again and again and … was looking up info on spur of the moment seed purchase. Very interesting site!
