Plant Care

Carpobrotus edulis, also known as Hottentot Fig or Ice Plant, is a succulent plant that is native to South Africa. Here are some tips for plant care:

  1. Light: Carpobrotus edulis prefers full sun to partial shade. It can tolerate some shade, but too much can cause the plant to become leggy.
  2. Water: Carpobrotus edulis is drought-tolerant and prefers soil that is on the dry side. Water sparingly, only when the soil is completely dry, and avoid overwatering.
  3. Soil: Carpobrotus edulis prefers well-draining soil that is sandy or gravelly. Avoid planting in heavy clay soil.
  4. Fertilizer: Carpobrotus edulis does not require regular fertilization. A light application of a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once or twice a year may be beneficial.
  5. Pruning: Trim back the plant in the late winter or early spring to encourage bushier growth and more blooms. Remove any dead, damaged, or diseased branches as needed.
  6. Propagation: Carpobrotus edulis can be propagated by taking stem cuttings in the spring or summer. Simply cut a 4-6 inch piece of stem with several leaves, let the cut end dry for a day or two, then plant in a well-draining potting mix. Keep the soil moist and the cutting in a warm, bright location until it roots.
  7. Pests and Diseases: This plant is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, it can suffer from root rot if overwatered or planted in poorly-draining soil. Keep an eye out for aphids, spider mites, and mealybugs, which can sometimes infest the plant.
