Notes
'Tricolor' caucasian stonecrop (Phedimus spurius 'Tricolor') is a succulent for borders, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It stays 3 to 6 inches tall and spreads 12 to 18 inches. The evergreen leaves hold up to dry spells, and pink flowers attract butterflies. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.
