Everwilde Farms - 1 oz Mixed Ice Plant Garden Flower Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

This plant's unusual name was most likely inspired by the crystal-like texture of its foliage. This vibrant annual also produces masses of daisy-like flowers in red, orange, yellow, pink, white, or purple. This flower comes from a family of plants native to southern Africa. The genus name Mesembryanthemum comes from the Greek words meaning "middle" and "flower," since this flower opens around midday. The species name "criniflorum" means "having hair-like leaves," possibly referring to the unusual crystal-like texture of the foliage. This quality also inspired the common names Ice Plant or Ice Daisy.
