Nursery contributed plant descriptions

These amazing hardy succulents are wonderful for hot dry sites! They love searing, dry, sunny spots and this variety seems to reflect the sun back with its cheerful, bright-yellow flowers all summer long. Blooming all-season over silvery mats of foliage just 4-6" high; their dense habit also crowds out weeds. This iceplant is perfect for banks and slopes, but it is also wonderful in containers.
