Eric’s Pet Plant: Carpet Weed (Cheiridopsis purpurea)
In this post, our friend Eric over at Yale’s Marsh Gardens reports on his new pet greenhouse, which will include – finally! – a proper environment large enough to house the significant collections of desert plants. The cheiridopsis, an iceplant-relative that like most of them is only a weed in warmer climes, is about to be one very happy camper. (Eric, too, once the dust clears.)
