Golden Japanese Stonecrop is a dense carpet forming evergreen succulent with tiny fleshy rounded foliage that is bright gold in the sun and chartreuse in shade. Clusters of tiny yellow-green star-shaped flower dust the plant in late summer. Grows best with afternoon shade in hot summer climates and in dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
