Ready to plant

Malephora lutea is a succulent plant, one of those commonly but incorrectly called fat plants. It is a yellow-flowered variety of the best-known Malephora crocea.

Malephora lutea is an evergreen groundcover that is not suitable for walking on, with fleshy blue-green foliage. It grows into a very dense groundcover whose stems root upon contact with the soil. Yellow flowers appear in spring and last until midsummer, before blooming again in early autumn.

This plant requires very little water and is highly drought-tolerant. However, during severe and prolonged drought, the Malephora lutea may shed some of its foliage to conserve resources. Thanks to its excellent salt tolerance, this plant is ideal for your coastal garden.

In spring, the yellow flowers bloom, lasting until midsummer before reappearing in early autumn.

Evergreen groundcover succulent that forms a very dense groundcover and requires very little water. It has excellent resistance to drought and salt spray, making it ideal for coastal gardens. It prefers full sun.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
