I fully agree with Arif sahib. At a very low cost and low maintenance, various varieties of genus Mesembryanthemum provide a stunning display which values far more than what we spend on it. I am particularly fond of perennial and more succulent looking varieties which make excellent low maintenance rock plants / ground cover. Foliage is great and abundance of flowers is a real bonus.

i doubt that staggered sowing will have any significant result. They are first to go with the arrival of heat. Precisely Mid Spring
