Delosperma cooperi is a dwarf perennial known for its drought tolerance, its ability to withstand the summer heat and the vermillion colored flowers that blossom throughout the summer.


Delosperma is a genus of succulents containing around 180 species.

She has “bladder-like hairs on the leaf surface that reflect and refract light in a manner to make it appear that they sparkle like ice crystals” (as described by the New Mexico State University).

Do look up close – it’s really stunning!


The Tale:

In South Africa, the leaves are used to make a local alcohol called khadi.

The leaves also contain important quantities of DMT – but must be extracted within laboratory conditions so don’t try it at home.
