Cheiridopsis Angustifolia Subsp. Protoparcoides

Larson's ice plant, scientifically known as Cheiridopsis angustifolia subsp. protoparcoides, is a striking succulent native to southern Africa. This resilient plant thrives in harsh, arid environments and is well adapted to extreme drought conditions. Its fleshy, blue-green leaves store water, allowing it to survive in regions with minimal rainfall. The plant produces small, star-shaped flowers in shades of pink and purple, adding a touch of beauty to its rugged habitat. Due to its unique appearance and hardy nature, it is a popular choice for rock gardens and xeriscaping.
