Lampranthus brownii

Dazzling flowers create a carpet of colour that thrives in sunny, dry conditions. Lampranthus brownii is a vibrant evergreen succulent prized for its profusion of brilliant daisy-like orange blooms that open in sunshine and cover the plant for weeks. The vivid flowers contrast beautifully with the fleshy green foliage, creating a striking display in rock gardens, gravel beds and containers. Its spreading habit allows it to form an attractive mat of evergreen growth, providing year-round structure and texture. Particularly suited to hot, exposed positions, it delivers impressive colour with minimal fuss. Whether cascading over walls or weaving through stones and gravel, this eye-catching plant brings brightness, texture and Mediterranean character to any sunny planting scheme. Ultimate height: 15cm (6in). Ultimate spread: 60cm (24in).
