cv. 'John Proffitt'. Vigorous, bright, and unstoppably floriferous, this Hardy Iceplant is prepared to scramble across those hot, dry, poor-soil garden spots where other plants have failed. Sporting masses of brilliant fuchsia-pink blooms atop foliage just 2 to 3 inches high, this effortless groundcover is the best solution we know to uncooperative soil and extreme heat.
Not only do the blooms arise from late spring all the way to fall, but the foliage — bright green in spring and summer — turns a rich shade of purple in autumn, then remains evergreen throughout winter. Very showy, and all on a plant so easy that it practically grows itself. Spreads 18 inches wide. Zones 4-8.
