Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

This small, spreading stonecrop typically grows 3 to 6 inches high and spreads 10 to 18 inches, forming a dense mat of foliage. Creeping stems root at the nodes. Small, rounded, fleshy, succulent-like green leaves are covered by clusters of tiny white, star-like flowers in early summer. Use as a groundcover in a rock garden, along a path, at the edge of a sunny perennial border, or in the parkstrip.
