Design with this plant

Overview

Carpet Stonecrop (Sedum album) is a low-growing, evergreen perennial succulent, thriving in USDA zones 4-9. Its plump, white to pale green leaves form dense, spreading mats up to 4 inches tall and 24 inches wide. In summer, clusters of star-shaped, white flowers create a striking contrast. Ideal for rock gardens, border fronts, or as ground cover, it's drought-tolerant once established, and well-draining soil ensures optimal growth.
