Livingstone Daisy Mesembryanthemum crinifolium

The bright neon like colours of these daisies make every garden brighter. The ground hugging plants will spread about 4 inches then be covered in masses of flowers that close up slightly in the late afternoon.

• The leaves are narrow fleshy and have a crystaline texture that lead to another common name Ice plant.
• They are easy to grow as half hardy annuals from their very fine seed with a bit of warmth in April
• Self colours are now available in orange and yellow but the multi-coloured mixes are still the most common
• The genera of Mesembryanthemaceae embrace a wide range of succulent plants including Dorotheanus, Phyllobolus, Dactylopsis, Hereroa Psammophora, Lithops and Lapidaria
