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