Description
Stonecrop Angelina is a stunning, low-growing succulent that delivers a bold splash of golden-yellow color to the landscape. Its finely textured, needle-like foliage remains vibrant throughout the growing season, transforming into a magnificent orange-bronze hue in fall and winter. This hardy ground cover spreads quickly, creating a lush, tidy mat that softens edges, fills in between stepping stones, or spills beautifully over rock walls. With its fresh, trailing habit and year-round interest, it is one of the finest choices for adding texture, contrast, and brilliance to a variety of landscape designs.
General Care

- Mulching: Apply a thin layer of mulch if needed to help retain moisture in extreme conditions
- Pruning: Trim back lightly in early spring if needed to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth
With its dynamic seasonal color, refreshing texture, and fast-spreading habit, Stonecrop Angelina is a satisfying, low-maintenance addition that brings structure and brilliance to the landscape year-round.
