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!

All three varieties are a ground-hugging 4 – 6” tall and hardy in Zones 5 – 9. And like all Delosperma, the flowers close at night to reopen the next day.

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.
