Back In Black Stonecrop is a striking evergreen succulent that forms a low mound of flattened near-black purple foliage. Clusters of mauve buds open to small creamy pink star-shaped flowers with dark red centers coat the plant from late summer into fall. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
