Introducing the Pink ice plant, known as Oscularia deltoides, which is a trailing succulent with pink flowers. Native to South Africa, this low-maintenance succulent makes great ground cover and spreads out, forming a colorful mat, and grows well on the rocky edge. Additionally, this pink ice plant can be grown in pots too.

The name "ice plant" refers to tiny hairs on the plant's leaves and stems that reflect light in the same way that ice crystals do. The foliage is fleshy and succulent-like, and it darkens as fall temperatures drop. Although ice plants are cold-sensitive, many varieties are evergreen in warm, dry climates.

Ice plants are used in sunny but sheltered desert gardens, rock gardens, slopes, ground cover, and as edging plants.

It is also known as Lampranthus Deltoides, Deltoid Leaved Dew Plant, Tooth-leaf Rock Vygie, Dassievygie, and Sandsteenvygie.

With its small, plump leaves that boast a mesmerizing blue-green hue, this ice plant is sure to turn heads and add drama to any space.

The three-sided leaves of the ice plant are fat and trailing.  The color becomes more intense as the pink ice plant ages and is exposed to more sunlight. It can grow up to 1 foot tall and 2 feet wide.

The ice plant flowers bloom during the late spring to summer, with bright pinkish-purple and dazzling magenta-pink flowers. They bloom from every nook and cranny until they completely surround and cover the whole plant. This stunning ground covered with pink flowers is closed up in the morning but open, often to cover the plant, in the afternoon. 

The true beauty of this trailing plant is that it can withstand high temperatures and extreme environmental conditions without showing signs of stress. It attracts butterflies.

Leaf cuttings and stem cuttings are the easiest way to propagate these ice plant ground cover. 

When and How to Water Your Ice Plant 

The ice plant is a succulent that prefers well-draining soil and requires watering only when the soil is dry to the touch. Overwatering can cause root rot and other issues that can damage these pink plants. They can be watered year-round and water regularly from spring to Autumn but reduce the watering frequency in winter; the growth period is early Spring to late Summer. 

When watering the pink ice plant, it is important to avoid standing water and to ensure that the soil is able to dry out between watering sessions. The pink ice plant is well-suited to dry climates and can tolerate periods of drought, but it does require a lot of water to thrive. 

Remember, watering should be done at the base of the succulent ice plant rather than from above to avoid getting water on the leaves, which can cause damage or rot. With proper watering and care, the pink ice plant can thrive and produce colorful blooms that are sure to brighten up any garden. 

Light Requirements - Where to Put Ice Plant

Like many other succulents, the ice plant is sun-loving and also requires direct, bright light to thrive.  When grown indoors, place it in the sunniest place in your house. It is ideal to grow this pink flower ground cover in a west- or south-facing window, when it can get 4-6 hours of bright sunlight. 

For outdoor cultivation, these oscularia deltoides require full sun to partial shade for at least 6-8 hours of strong light each day. Although light shade in the afternoon is often preferable - especially in hotter climates where the plant might become stressed by the intense heat of the afternoon sun. It's crucial to place your pink plants away from any areas with constant direct sunlight, as doing so could result in burned foliage. 

Remember, when planting the pink ice plant, it is important to choose a location that receives full sun throughout the day to maintain its colors. It is well-suited to hot and dry climates and can tolerate high temperatures and intense sunlight. 

This pink ice is able to tolerate some shade, but it may not produce as many blooms in areas with less sunlight or in too much shade. With proper light and care, the pink ice plant can thrive and produce beautiful blooms that are sure to add color and interest to any garden or landscape. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The ice plant favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally, use our specialized potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your succulent to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizer, the pink ice plant does not require a lot of additional nutrients. In fact, too much fertilizer can cause the plant to produce excessive foliage at the expense of blooms. A slow-release natural fertilizer with an equal mix of NPK (5-10-5) can be applied once a year in the spring to help provide the plant with the nutrients it needs to thrive. Care should be taken to avoid over-fertilizing the succulent plant, as this can lead to issues with growth and blooming. 

With proper soil and fertilizer, the ice flower plant can thrive and produce beautiful blooms that are sure to add color and interest to any garden or landscape. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, it should be kept between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure optimal growth. The requirements are fairly flexible, as it can tolerate a wide range of temperatures. However, it is best to keep it in a warm environment with plenty of sunlight to encourage healthy growth.

For outdoor cultivation, this hardy ice plant is suitable outdoors in USDA zones 8-11, making oscularia deltoidesa a versatile plant that can be grown in a variety of climates. However, it is important to ensure that the succulent plants receive enough water to prevent issues with dehydration. 

The ice plant is able to tolerate mild frost, but it may struggle in areas with prolonged periods of frost or freezing temperatures. The best way to grow these pink ground covers is in containers, especially for those who live in regions with harsh winters.  

When it's cold outside, or there is a chance of snow or frost, you can then bring them inside. There are ways to keep your pink ice plant succulent safe from the cold if you are unable to bring it inside.To help them endure the harsh winter, you can use frost cloths or tiny greenhouses.

It was good until it wasn't. :(
Purchased this in February. It worked great while it worked. It started stopping periodically as I would use it around the first of April. I thought it could be the batteries so I changed the batteries. It is still stopping as I use it. It will spin for a second or two then stop. I have to press the button several times to get it to start again only for it to run a few seconds at a time.

10/10 product. Best on the market.
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
This thing is bomb. I can confirm that it is legit and cooks way more effectively than a lot of of the other options, especially for oven air fryers, but even against basket air fryers we originally got a ninja dual basket, vertical stacked air fryer and had to return it because of a weird whining noise. I’m so glad we did because this thing has been killer. The thermometer option for reverse searing stakes makes it so easy to get it to the exact temperature and then sear it for 90 seconds on each side. even in general regular air frying stuff is great in here. Pretty easy to clean everything fits in the dishwasher, but also it’s easy to clean with a sponge. It’s pretty big and can fit a lot of things and the best part is The front end is very user-friendly. My fiancé had a hard time figuring out working the ninja, she found this to be much more intuitive to work with

Great performance, versatile, quiet, reasonably priced.
Color: Stainless Steel
Terrific air fryer / oven. I bought it to replace my smaller air fryer. It does that, and more. Since I only have one oven in my kitchen, this serves as a backup. Large enough to many things. Air Fry / Roast / Bake etc. The wifi connectivity is helpful -- lets me set up and run a task, and lets me know when done. The included and integrated wireless temperature probe is great. Set up your roast and forget it. Get a notification when done. It is also quiet! Great buy.

Color me impressed!
Color: Stainless Steel
Color me impressed! So far I really like this Typhur Sync oven. My first test was a frozen pizza. Unfortunately, it was overcooked. I really can't remember at this moment the exact temperature/time settings I used. (Probably used the box directions.) However, next time I'm going to just select the pizza setting on the oven and trust it. This is a convection oven, so I shouldn't have used the box directions. My next test was a big one. I cooked a 5.6 pound rib roast for Christmas. I selected “beef”, then “medium well”, then hit start. After the preheat was completed, I put the roast in the oven. Of course, before putting it in the oven I inserted the wireless temperature probe. I had taken the roast out of the fridge to let it get to room temperature an hour or so earlier. The probe said its internal temperature was 56 degrees, and the target temperature would be 140 degrees. I looked at other ovens as well, but selected this Typhur for its wireless probe and phone app that would track the oven progress and alert me when it was completed. The oven is downstairs, and this app would save me much stair work. It worked great! Love the little app. I checked the app from time to time for cooking progress, and it would tell me its current internal temperature and the target temperature. Also told me the time to completion. Amazing. It “dinged” my phone when the oven was done. I went downstairs and removed the roast. It looked fantastic. Of course while sitting on the counter top, the roast continued to cook internally while we were getting everything else set up on the dining table, thereby making it more like “well done” when we were finally ready to eat. After slicing it, the meat looked great. Not as pink as I wanted, but that was due to the “internal cooking” it did. I think next time, I'm selecting “medium”. Then it might be more like “medium well” when we're ready to eat. Also, did I mention that the cook time was just a little over 90 minutes? Couldn't believe how fast it cooked. My next test was cooking a pork tenderloin “medium well”. It took 33 minutes, and turned out great. Again, I'm very happy with this purchase. Back story... Years ago we remodeled our kitchen in a previous house, and not wanting to discard a perfectly good wall oven, I built a box for it and kept the oven in our garage to act as our second oven. Well, after 26 years it finally started failing. (Couldn't blame it for all the hot summer and cold winter cycles it went through.) Repair cost would be unreasonably high, even if the parts were available. Looking to replace it would cost anywhere between $450 (for a “no name” oven) and $1000 or more (for a “known brand” oven). I then saw these counter top ovens. After some study, I gambled and selected this Typhur Sync for $230 (also a “no name” brand to me at the time). Glad I did.

Good little oven
Color: Stainless Steel
Delivery was prompt. Wasn’t sure what to expect on the oven but the controls were fairly intuitive and have used several of the settings. Performs well on everything that we’ve used it for. The instructions are basic but adequate to get you cooking. The size was a little larger than anticipated, it is deeper and takes up more counterspace but you can cook a chicken in it! Looks great sitting on the counter. Not too industrial and the buttons and knobs make changing settings easy.
