Known for its creeping habit, drought tolerance, and frequent red-pink blooms, Red Apple establishes quickly and expands outward to fill open soil areas.
This standard horticultural tray offers maximum flexibility. Gardeners can distribute the plants throughout a landscape, fill bare spots, or create modular layouts with consistent plant quality and growth performance.

  • Filling borders, beds, or empty groundcover gaps
  • Plant-spacing layouts or modular designs
  • Replacing individual plants in existing gardens
  • Residential and commercial low-water landscapes

About the Plant

Red Apple/Baby Sun Rose (Aptenia cordifolia) is a fast-spreading, evergreen succulent with glossy leaves and bright red-pink flowers. It thrives in full sun, heat, and low-water conditions, forming either a trailing cascade or a dense creeping carpet depending on placement. Its durability and minimal maintenance make it ideal for drought-tolerant and beginner-friendly landscapes.

Plant Care
  • Light – Full sun to bright indirect light for best vigor and flowering.
  • Water – Water deeply when soil is dry; avoid standing water. Very drought-tolerant once established.
  • Soil – Prefers well-drained sandy or loamy soils; avoid heavy, water-retentive mixes.
  • Temperature – Warm-climate plant; protect from frost. Performs well in heat.
  • Fertilizer – Minimal feeding needed; optional light feeding during the growing season.
