Planting and care

  • In very hot climates (e
  • Southwest US) plant in the autumn

  • In very cold areas, consider planting a,row crop, to shelter your ice plant from freezing temperatures
  • If you live in areas where snow lingers, cover your plants with a frost blanket during the coldest months
  • ,Mulch, around ice plants with gravel
  • This helps both stems and roots as the gravel holds a correct amount of moisture around the roots but allows good air circulation around the stems
