Lampranthus aureus, commonly known as Golden Ice Plant or Orange Vygie, is a species of flowering succulent plant in the Aizoaceae family. It is native to South Africa, particularly in the Western Cape region.
They are a low-growing, spreading succulent that forms a dense mat of fleshy, triangular leaves. The leaves are greenish-grey in color and have a waxy texture that helps the plant retain moisture. During the flowering season, which typically occurs in spring and early summer, the plant produces vibrant, daisy-like flowers that can range in color from golden-yellow to orange.
This plant is well-suited for rock gardens, ground cover, and containers, particularly in areas with dry or arid climates. It is drought-tolerant and prefers full sun to thrive. Like most succulents, Lampranthus aureus requires well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly to prevent root rot.
