Description
Exceptionally easy to grow and drought tolerant, and changing colors throughout the seasons, Coral Carpet Sedum, also called White Stonecrop, is a lowing growing, creeping, mat forming, evergreen succulent plant perfect for use in well-drained garden beds and container gardens. Its dense foliage to 4 inches tall has small succulent leaves that emerge a salmon-orange color changing to bright green in summer and then to reddish bronze with the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall and winter. From late spring to mid-summer, butterflies will thank you for the pretty clusters of white to soft pink flowers.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 3 to 4 inches tall and spreading 18 inches or more wide, the Coral Carpet Sedum is ideal for use as a groundcover plant or as a border along walkways and paths or around patios. Very nice around rocks and boulders or spilling over walls. Also serves nicely as a soil cover or spiller plant in container gardens. A fine addition to rock gardens and succulent gardens.
