Neon Showy Stonecrop is a dense upright semi-evergreen succulent with whorls of flat fleshy light grey-green foliage that turns gold in fall. Dense rounded clusters of intensely pink tiny star-shaped flowers top the stems from mid summer and fade to burgundy in fall. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
