Aptenia cordifolia Variegated

Aptenia cordifolia Variegata, also known as Variegated Baby Sun Rose, is a trailing perennial that brings colour and interest to garden beds, borders, and containers. It features heart-shaped green leaves edged with creamy-white margins, offering a soft contrast to its bright magenta-pink flowers that appear in the warmer months. With its low-growing, trailing habit, it works well as a ground cover option or it looks great in hanging baskets, where it can spill over the edges for added visual appeal.

Plant in a sunny, well-drained spot, ideally in a sheltered location. This variety is drought-tolerant once established and needs only occasional watering, making it suitable for low-maintenance gardens. It prefers poor to moderately fertile soil and benefits from a light prune after flowering to keep its shape. Aptenia cordifolia Variegated is well-suited to coastal gardens, containers, and rockeries, where it can thrive with minimal care.

Supplied in approx. 9cm pots.
