Cephalophyllum alstonii
“Lipstick Iceplant”

Cephalophyllum alstonii “Lipstick Iceplant”

Large phenomenally brilliant true red blooms without even a hint of yellow will slay you the first time they open. 3” across & silky-glowy, they appear most in Spring & again in Fall & Winter in our mild climate. With pleasant bright green succulent finger-like foliage to only 3.5” tall, it spreads slowly to about 15” across, making a choice small-scale groundcover. Definitely not invasive! Lipsmacking in rock gardens, succulent gardens & containers. Good drainage.
