Notes
'Baby Tears' white stonecrop (Sedum album 'Baby Tears') is a succulent for borders, rock gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy or clay soil. It spreads fast as a creeping, evergreen mat and blooms in spring and summer, which draws butterflies, bees, and birds. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Give it room to spread.
Pairs well with Blue grama, Nodding onion, and Baby's breath.
