Delosperma ‘Jewel of Desert Topaz’ is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial with succulent foliage and vibrant orange-yellow daisy-like flowers with contrasting centres.
This heat and drought-tolerant variety produces a long-lasting display from late spring through to autumn, making it ideal for rockeries, gravel gardens, borders, and containers. The spreading habit creates a dense groundcover, with flowers covering the foliage throughout the flowering season.
Best grown in full sun in well-drained soil, Delosperma performs particularly well in dry conditions and is suited to exposed or coastal sites.
