Corpuscularia lehmannii
succulent
Description
Corpuscularia lehmannii, also known as the ice plant, is a charming succulent that adds texture and interest to any garden or indoor space. Native to South Africa, this plant is known for its fleshy, cylindrical leaves that appear frosted or covered in tiny, sparkling crystals. The leaves' unique appearance gives it a shimmering quality, especially in bright light. During the summer, the ice plant produces small, daisy-like flowers in shades of yellow, which attract pollinators like bees. This succulent is a versatile plant that thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, making it a low-maintenance option for gardeners of all levels. It is well-suited for rock gardens, hanging baskets, or container plantings. Propagate easily by cuttings. To keep it healthy, water sparingly, as it's highly susceptible to root rot.
