John Creech Stonecrop is a dense mat-forming semi-evergreen succulent with tiny fleshy scalloped green foliage that turns deep burgundy in fall. Clusters of tiny pink star-shaped flowers dust the plant in late summer. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
