disappointed
Reviewed By: Darryl (Pittsburgh, PA)
I planted 6 of the ice plant in rich soil in May. It spread rapidly and had beautiful green succulent leaves and bright pink flowers until October. But every plant died in winter. None came up next spring. I was disappointed. This is an annual in zone 4, not a perennial.

Tricky but prolific
Reviewed By: Edie (Garden Valley, ID)
Just like the other reviewers, I thought my ice plants had died over the winter, so I pulled out the remains. To my amazement, as June began to wane, ice plants began showing up everywhere I'd tossed the "remains." They've taught me to believe their dead looking remains for true dead.

taking over the yard
Reviewed By: Olie (La Luz, NM)
I planted these a few years ago mostly red and yellow. They are taking over everything. Can't keep them under control. They bloom all year so guess I will let them take over.
