Q.Delosperma (ice plant)

Zone 44691 | Newt added on September 24, 2017 | Answered

We live in the northern third of Ohio
Last winter all of these plants died. So we got new ones that have done well
Should we trim, and then cover? Some sights say woven row cover?.?
We do get snow, and many below freezing days
We would really like to keep them. We have them along our front walk
Would the white styrofome cones work?
Thanks
Newt

They should be hardy in your area. If you think the cold is the issue, though, it would be best to mulch with something such as hay. this will ensure that they do not get too cold.
