Variegated Carpet

This cute little evergreen stonecrop is prized for its unusual, two-toned foliage colour, with its leaves being an attractive pale green with creamy-white margins held on long, slender stems. It also features small, bright yellow, starburst flowers. Growing just 5cm high, 20cm wide, it will quickly form dense low-growing clumps.

A very popular container plant, happy on a windowsill but also ideal in hanging baskets where its foliage can cascade down. Successful as a groundcover as well. An easy plant to grow, it needs little attention and thrives even in poor conditions. However it will do best in full sun to dappled shade, in a well-draining potting mix, with minimal watering over summer and almost dry over winter.

A variegated cultivar of Sedum lineate which is native to eastern Asia. Common names include: Variegated Carpet, the Trailing Sedum.
