Notes
'Lidakense' cliff stonecrop (Hylotelephium cauticola 'Lidakense') is a succulent for rock gardens, containers, borders, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Deer tend to browse other plants first. It creeps along slowly and stays evergreen. Bees, butterflies, and birds visit it, and it handles dry spells well.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Purple Coneflower coneflower, and Pink Impression tulip.
