Requested to please provide ID


Delosperma aberdeenense (L.Bolus) L.Bolus ??


Sorry….Not sure id is correct.
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:361455-1


Pl. check Delosperma cooperi (Hook.f.) L.Bolus


This looks very different from the Delosperma cooperi I posted 2 days ago from the same place.
I do not think it is the same plant.


Pl. check Drosanthemum like

Thanks … for providing the links.
But I could not discern any differences in D. floribundum and D. hispidum.


We may take it as Drosanthemum floribundum as per … post (Drosanthemum floribundum from California-GS10042023-1) and the following, for the time being:
