The Drosanthemum speciosum Embers, known as Royal dewflower, is a vibrant, sun-loving succulent shrub that turns heads with its fiery blooms and compact, mounding habit. Native to South Africa, this eye-catching plant has become increasingly popular in drought-tolerant gardens and rock landscapes for its brilliant floral display and easy-care nature. The cultivar 'Embers' is especially prized for its warm-toned red to orange flowers that seem to glow in the sunlight, creating a bold contrast against the plant’s lush green stems. 

The Drosanthemum Embers forms a low, rounded mound with semi-woody stems densely covered in fleshy, cylindrical green leaves. These leaves are often coated with tiny glistening bladder cells that give them a dew-kissed look—hence the name "Dewflower."  

The plant remains relatively compact, growing to about 18 inches tall and 24 inches wide, making it ideal for containers, ground covers, borders, and sunny slopes.

It’s also deer-resistant and highly attractive to pollinators.

It is also known as Vygie, or Ice Plant (though technically not a true Ice Plant like Delosperma).

The Drosanthemum speciosum 'Embers' flowers are bright orange to red daisy-like with yellow centers, blooming typically in late spring to early summer, and occasionally in the fall in mild climates.

The blossoms open during sunny hours and close at night or on cloudy days, adding dynamic interest to garden spaces. These vivid flowers attract bees and other pollinators, adding an ecological benefit to their ornamental value. 

Like most succulents, opens in a new tab, this Drosanthemum plant thrives in well-draining  succulent soil, opens in a new tab for healthy growth. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering or poor drainage can lead to root rot.

For indoor growth, place the plant near a south or west-facing window with plenty of bright, direct light, and maintain indoor temperatures between 60°F to 80°F. 

In the United States, this is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 9-11.

In cooler climates, it can be grown in pots and brought indoors during winter.

Light pruning after blooming helps maintain shape and encourages new growth. 

The Drosanthemum speciosum ‘Embers’ is easily propagated through stem cuttings, typically taken in spring or summer.

Allow the cut ends to callous over for a day or two before planting in a gritty soil mix. Water sparingly until roots form.  

According to ASPCA, the Drosanthemum species are not considered toxic to pets or humans, making them a safer choice for households with animals.  

Final Thoughts

Overall, Drosanthemum speciosum ‘Embers’ (Royal dewflower) is a standout choice for gardeners looking to add bold color and structure to their landscapes without increasing maintenance. Its fire-toned flowers, shimmering foliage, and resilience in tough conditions make it both a functional and decorative asset. Whether grown alone in a container or nestled among other succulents and groundcovers, it delivers a burst of brilliance that enhances any garden space with minimal effort.

Perfect for the Price!
Color: Greige, Size: 13"D x 23.7"W x 32.7"H
The bar cart was very easy to put together. I can be "mechanically challenged" and was able to do it myself LOL It's nice and sturdy, the wheels roll smooth when you move it. The size is perfect for the small wall I have it against. I have several bottles of liquor and bartending mixer set on top, and about 20 various glassware on the 2nd shelf. The bottom shelf is taller, and does let you stand larger bottles down there. The one racks will only for the smaller size, but does hold them well.

Decent bar cart, but very annoying assembly
Color: Marble White, Size: 13"D x 23.7"W x 32.7"H
I think it looks nice and is decent value, but this thing is a pain to put together. Instead of just sending 3 shelves, you get 6 pieces to connect together to make 3 shelves. On top of that - they don’t even really connect. It would be 1000x easier if they added a couple of wooden pegs to connect the 2 pieces together. Instead, you have to do a balancing act which is tedious as can be. I ended up super glueing 2 of the 3 shelves togethers after how annoying the first was, so I would highly recommend you do the same. The whole process of putting it together feels like a balancing act. For something so small, it’s about as annoying as possible to put together. Nearly every step requires you to balance something and screw it in. Most of this would be alleviated if, as I said, it was just 3 pieces for the shelves instead of 6. But, you get what you pay for. Overall, I can’t complain too much for the price and result, but I wasn’t a fan of building it. It’d also look a little nicer if each shelf didn’t have a crack going through it.

Well made kitchen caddy
Color: Black, Size: 9.4*4.1*5IN, Color: Black, Size: 9.4*4.1*5IN
Appears to be well made. Just the right size, not too large or small. After purchasing and returning several caddies. This one is the keeper. I'm sure be just as pleased as I am. Go for it , you won't regret it.
