Ice Plants Delosperma

[@courtneykinniburgh7498]

Such a great video! Haha plant police! 😂 I have a fire spinner. Did not know that info! I love ice plants. Now I know not to over fertilize it.

Does this plant stay green all yr round? Mine has dried. Will it come back in the spring or did i kill it? I read somewhere that when winter hits you don't water it.

[@moonshinedesignsnursery3310]

In zones 7 and up, yes. Here is zone 5a, they often die back tot he ground and them come back in spring provided the ground does not stay soggy wet over winter.

Is it ok to put mulch or pebbles around them please? Thank you

[@brianjauregui3783]

How do you control Bermuda grass growing in the ice plant?

Will pruning make more flower blooms?

Hello. Thanks for this video. I bought a flat of ice plant delosperma. As I'm planting it, the plants are very leggy. Should I prune them back and if so, can i grow the cuttings? Thanks

[@moonshinedesignsnursery3310]

Yes, you can cut back and those you cut off will root if conditions are warm and not too wet.

@@moonshinedesignsnursery3310 Thanks for your reply. I cut off a few to see if they would root.

[@penduloz]

Did they?

Does this plant attract 🦋pollinators🐝? I like plants that bring pollinators for sightseeing.

[@moonshinedesignsnursery3310]

Yes. Bees like it.

Having alot of trouble getting the seeds to start. And when they do start, they seem to just flop over and die... not even just Iceplant, but just about every plant I've tried to grow (from seed)

[@moonshinedesignsnursery3310]

That is called "Damp-off" and is caused by a fungus. Keep surface well ventilated and not too wet and/or use a fungicide such as Banrot drench.
