Ruschia lineolata, 100 cuttings

Horticultural Data | Shipping & Availability | Top

Ruschia lineolata is an excellent groundcover plant and is tough enough to be suitable as a lawn substitute. It also looks at home in succulent and rock gardens and grown between stepping-stones. Ruschia lineolata can also be grown in containers large or small.
Ruschia lineolata is a very dense, low growing ground cover. It has small green linear succulent leaves. It can take foot and even vehicle traffic without much damage and makes a good turf substitute in hot dry climates. It can also be used on slopes as well. It is not fussy about soil type but does need good drainage and maintenance.

In spring it is covered in very lovely one-inch flowers with magenta striped white petals which give the plant its species designation. These flowers are attractive to pollinating insects. Best flowering occurs in full sun. Many people like Ruschia lineolata due to it’s thick green coverage and its plush texture. Serra Gardens carries a large stock of Ruschia lineolata.
