The perfect succulent to cover surfaces in your garden very well! Ideal for walls, borders and rockeries, and a great choice for filling gaps between pavers.
Vigorous and creeping, 8-10cm tall and 25-30cm wide. Oval leaves with a very serrated dark green edge, which disappear in winter. They grow clusters of pink buds that end in star-shaped, lemon-yellow flowers. Reddish orange seeds. Attractive to bees and butterflies.
It is advisable to let the soil dry out between waterings and protect from winter moisture.
Direct sowing. Cover the seeds thinly and maintain constant humidity with temperatures of 20ºC.
