Bronze Carpet Stonecrop is a trailing mat-forming evergreen succulent with dense whorls of green flattened wedge-shaped fleshy foliage that emerges with a salmon-orange flush and turns reddish-bronze in winter. Clusters of tiny pink star-shaped flowers bloom in late summer. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
