Mesembryanthemum, also known as Ice Plant or Livingstone Daisy , produces bright, daisy-like flowers in mixed shades that open beautifully in sunlight. It grows well in cool to mild weather, prefers full sunlight and well-drained soil, and is suitable for 6-8 inch pots, borders, rock gardens, and garden beds. Native to southern Africa, it became popular worldwide for its low-growing spread, drought tolerance, and ability to create colorful carpet-like displays in sunny spaces.
