Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only. The winner of an RHS Award of Garden Merit, Delosperma sutherlandii is ideal for introducing a splash of colour to rockeries, gravel gardens, containers, stone walls, and tricky hot, dry spots. Delosperma thrives in poor sandy, sharply drained soil, in a sunny, sheltered position. Add plenty of sharp grit to the soil prior to planting in order to improve drainage and prevent the roots from rotting.
