Sedum glaucophyllum
Appalachian Stonecrop |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |

The alpine selections of Stonecrop are excellent edging or rock garden plants, particularly for hot, dry sites with poor soil. This species forms a low, non-spreading clump of light-green leaves.

A good candidate for any collection of fine alpine plants. Evergreen. Native to the eastern USA.
