Stonecrop is one of the best plants for xeriscaping or water-wise gardens in part due to their succulent-like nature. They thrive in the heat and full sun and don't mind being on the drier side too. In the heat of late summer, 'Dragon's Blood' explodes into bloom with tiny masses of red-pink, star-like flowers that cover the reddish-green foliage until fall when foliage turns even deeper red. They make an excellent perennial for massing or for creeping over rock. Stonecrop does best in well-drained soils and can even be planted between rocks, pavers, and other small areas where other perennials may otherwise grow. They are also relatively disease/insect resistant and rabbits and deer tend to avoid them.
