Stonecrop

'Red Angelina' Stonecrop is a low-growing, spreading succulent featuring vibrant cherry-red, needle-like foliage that holds its colour for much of the growing season. The intense red tones remain strong from spring through fall, with even richer colour developing in cooler weather. In early to mid-summer, clusters of small yellow star-shaped flowers appear above the foliage, adding seasonal contrast.
