Very hardy and drought tolerant, Sedum acre (Gold Moss) is a low growing, mat-forming, evergreen succulent perennial with tangled stems clothed with conical, bright green leaves. Small clusters of tiny, star-shaped, bright yellow flowers, adorned with protruding stamens, bloom just above the foliage throughout most of the summer. Vigorous, Sedum acre spreads quickly and can be used to create a cheerful groundcover. It is also wonderful spilling over rock walls and cascading from containers. Possible lawn substitute with minimal foot traffic. Terrific for sunny areas with poor dry soil.
