Notes

'Variegatum' stonecrop (Sedum lineare 'Variegatum') is an annual for borders, rock gardens, ground cover, and pollinator gardens. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It has a cascading habit and stays under 6 inches tall. Butterflies and bees visit the flowers in spring and summer. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The evergreen foliage tolerates drought and grows quickly.

Pairs well with Ice plant, Spurge, and California poppy.
