Seed ripens | early July |
Excellent stonecrop for ground cover - a rugged perennial that stands its ground, taking less than perfect conditions in stride, while slowly expanding its territory. The evergreen succulent foliage, more sharply serrated than most sedums, stays low; it is covered in yellow flowers in late spring, followed by red fruit.
