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.

Pet Friendly
Color: Blue
This toy is honestly the best gift for my pet cat but it may be a little too large for her just yet. Would make the perfect toy for a grown dog though. The material is such a great quality that dogs can chew it and not spoil the fun. I am amazed such a great product was priced so moderately.

Great engagement for my pup! The noise level is low, and chew resistance seems solid. Decent value for money with a nice appearance. Durable enough for daily play. Highly recommended!

Fun toy, but dog is able to unscrew
The dog loves it. But.....the dog bites and twists it in his paws and is able to unscrew it. Now the threads are getting stripped. And I am concerned he will start chewing on the battery if I am not watching him. Update - the seller refunded my money, so all good. If your dog can't unscrew it, they will love it.

Not for my kids
Scary ball to my dogs. The power button is inside so you have to unscrew it, turn it on & screw it back together before it starts moving. It's not easy. It's harder than a rubber ball so I think it would be sturdy. It might work for some dogs, but mine ran for the hills!
