Description

Sedum lydium, Mossy Stonecrop or Least Stonecrop, is a particularly beautiful ground-covering Sedum, native to Turkey where it grows at elevation in damp rocky nooks. The foliage is very fine and flushes pinkish-purple in the sun. Its flowers are white, sometimes tinged with pink although it doesn't always flower every year. A very easy Sedum that will quickly form a dense mat. Ideal for dry-stone walls or to scramble over rocks or on the shed roof.
