Commonly known as Pale Stonecrop, this is an herbaceous perennial with succulent and colourful foliage. The small leaves are light blue with a powdery appearance, and are held as rosettes off fleshy stems. Clusters of tiny, yellow flowers are borne through summer off elongated stems. It typically grows to 25 cm tall and 30 cm, preferring a full sun position and a well-drained soil. It is tolerant of extended dry periods, light frost, and partial shade. Pale Stonecrop is commonly grown indoors as a potted plant, included in rock gardens, used in Mediterranean gardens, or planted around pool and other outdoor living areas.
