  • Description

  • Notes

This group of sedums, commonly called stonecrop, is a tough, drought tolerant species with rounded, succulent-like leaves and star-like, early summer flowers. They grow about 6 inches tall (including the flower) and twice as wide (or more if you're patient). Great for rock gardens, parkstrips, and at the edges of pathways.
