Pig Face Purple Carpet

A mat-forming succulent featuring vibrant purple flowers, Pig Face Purple Carpet grows close to the ground and spreads outward to create a dense carpet of soft grey-green foliage. Its small, fleshy leaves are covered in fine hairs that catch the light like tiny droplets, giving the plant a dewy, shimmering appearance and inspiring its common name, Ice Plant. From spring right through to autumn, the foliage will be covered in masses of daisy-like flowers that form a vibrant blanket of colour and attracts bees and other pollinators.

Tough, hardy, and wonderfully drought-tolerant once established, this pigface variety thrives in rockeries, borders, pots, embankments, and coastal or low-maintenance gardens. It is an easy-care plant that offers striking colour and texture with very little effort, making it a favourite for gardeners seeking bold impact and dependable performance.
