Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Description
Stonecrops are succulent groundcovers that have been cultivated to grow in many environments.
Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Blooming
Tiny, star-shaped, five petaled flowers in dense, showy clusters from half an inch to 8 inches across.
Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Growth
Tough annuals, biennials, perennials, subshrubs, and shrubs with fleshy leaves. Perennials range from 1 inch tall mat-forming to 2 foot tall mounding habits.
Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Planting

Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Interesting facts
Stonecrops are ideal for green rooftops. In areas where green rooftops are prevalent, Stonecrops are beginning to replace grasses as the primary source of plant material. Additionally, these plants are known for their succulent leaves, which are primarily used for water storage. The succulent leaves provide better fire hazard protection because a Stonecrop covered rooftop has such a high concentration of water compared to grass covered roofs.
Stonecrops (Sedum hybrids) - Soil and irrigation
Does best with well-drained, average to rich soil. Will also grow in poor, dry soil.
