Plant description
A mat-forming evergreen perennial forming an attractive carpet of tidy little rosettes of thick and succulent, chalky white to silvery-grey to blue-green leaves, tinged with purple during the winter. Showy sprays of bright yellow starry flowers appear atop short, thick stems in summer which are attractive to pollinating insects. Sedum spathulifolium is a great choice for rock gardens, rock walls, or alpine troughs, and can be used in carpet bedding schemes.
