Mesembryanthemum Hybrida 'Mauve' (Mauve Pigface)

Mesembryanthemum Hybrida 'Mauve' (Mauve Pigface) is a tough, evergreen succulent groundcover prized for its fleshy grey-green foliage and masses of large, daisy-like mauve flowers. The slightly trailing habit forms a dense, spreading mat, while the colourful blooms open in bright sunshine to create an attractive seasonal display. Its compact growth and vibrant flowers make it particularly effective in rockeries, retaining walls and containers.

A hardy, drought-tolerant choice, Mesembryanthemum Hybrida 'Mauve' (Mauve Pigface) performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. It is tolerant of salt, wind and dry conditions once established, making it particularly suitable for coastal and waterwise gardens. Its low-maintenance nature, spreading habit and long flowering period make it an excellent choice for covering difficult sunny areas or creating colourful cascading displays.
