Delosperma HOTCAKES® 'Saucy Strawberry'

Embodying the warmth and vibrancy of its name, Delosperma HOTCAKES® 'Saucy Strawberry' is a hardy succulent groundcover that brings a burst of color to any garden space. Originating from the rugged landscapes of South Africa, this delightful variety thrives in sunny, well-drained conditions. Its foliage, a dense mat of succulent green leaves, sets the stage for the true spectacle: an abundance of daisy-like flowers with vibrant pink petals surrounding a cheerful yellow center, reminiscent of ripe strawberries topped with cream.

Reaching up to 3 inches in height with a spread of 18 to 24 inches, 'Saucy Strawberry' is perfect for filling gaps in rockeries, spilling over walls, or enhancing the front of a border with its ground-hugging habit. The flowers, which bloom profusely from late spring to the first frost, are not only a feast for the eyes but also attract pollinators, adding life and movement to the garden.

Despite its delicate appearance, Delosperma HOTCAKES® 'Saucy Strawberry' is tough, drought-resistant, and able to withstand the heat of summer without faltering. Its maintenance is minimal, requiring only occasional watering once established and a sunny spot to call home. This variety is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add long-lasting color and texture to their outdoor spaces, with the added bonus of being deer resistant. Whether used as a vibrant groundcover or a unique addition to a succulent collection, 'Saucy Strawberry' promises to bring joy and beauty to the garden with its saucy, sun-loving disposition.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
