SEDUM ACRE GOLDMOSS STONECROP
Sedum acre
Goldmoss Stonecrop DROUGHT-WISE
Sedum acre is perfect STEPABLES Creeping Perennial for rock gardens , borders and parched paths where little to no water is available . Goldmoss Stoneecrop carpets the ground with deep, green foliage that becomes completely engulfed (and I mean completely!) with yellow flowers in summer. The deep green foliage turns a beautiful shade of red during cold months to give you winter interest on the ground . Use Sedum acre in and amongst stepping stones , a dry rock garden path , or along a fence line . Sharp drainage is a must. Over watering will impair growth.

Gardening Tips from Fran
Sedum acre is an old time favorite worth having. It is one of the best naturalizing ,
Drought Tolerant/Drought-Wise ground covering perennials out on the market.
Sedum Acre creates a lovely lawn substitution in difficult spots , spills over
retaining walls with ease and generally gives your garden that special touch
you have been looking for.
*It does reseed, which for most people is a blessing, but if you don’t little freebies everywhere,
I recommend it’s golden offspring Sedum acre Aureum .
**Many of our plants are listed as Not a Good Fit for Kid Traffic/Dog Traffic/Around Pools .
These plants will work fine around these spots. However, please keep in mind that many people
(and animals) have allergies to bees or fragrances . While the plants may work perfectly
in the area that you have determined, blooms may need to be sacrificed,
or a different plant may need to be determined in order for the area to be used free of concern .
