Delosperma Ocean Sunset™ Ever watch the sun set over the sea?

Delosperma Ocean Sunset™ Ever watch the sun set over the sea?

Posted by John Friel on Oct 18th 2022

Remember how huge it looked as it slowly sank, closer and closer to the water? Didn’t it seem twice as big as when it was high overhead?

That’s Ocean Sunset for you. This series was bred for brilliant blooms that open wide, significantly larger than any other on the market. We’ve grown them all, and they’re all good, but oh, these flowers! They’re not just bigger, the colors are hot hot hot!


Orange Glow PPAF Unusual bicolor blooms are pumpkin orange with purple tips.

Orange Vibe PPAF Smoldering orange flowers with white centers.

Violet PPAF Purple petals with pink bases form a blushing eye around white centers.

All varieties are a ground-hugging 4 – 6” tall and hardy in Zones 5 – 9.


Fun Fact 

The sun and moon may appear larger when rising or setting, but you know better. It’s not even an optical illusion, caused by the atmosphere. It’s a trick of the mind, known as the Ponzo Illusion. Imagine that!


You’re absolutely not imagining the big bodacious blooms of Ocean Sunset. It’s no illusion. They really are huuuuuge! compared to other varieties. They come in slick-planting, quick-finishing 72-cell trays from Emerald Coast Growers – your easy choice!
