Tolerant of extreme heat and cold, Dyckia ‘Burgundy Ice’ is an evergreen succulent with striking rosettes of fleshy, gracefully curving, burgundy leaves adorned with brilliant white spines. It will maintain its burgundy color year-round if placed in full sun. In summer, spikes of bright orange flowers are borne in profusion above the foliage, brightening up the garden and attracting hummingbirds. This Dyckia produces offsets very freely, forming a dense and charming colony over time. A colorful focal point in the xeriscape, it is perfect for rock gardens and containers.
