Description

The 'Variegatum' is a deciduous, succulent perennial that forms a dense clump of short, scandent stems that are densely packed with rounded, toothed grey blue leaves with creamy margins. In the fall, short spikes of rosy pink, star-like flowers top each stem. Even when it is not in bloom, the plant provides a beautiful foliage effect. It does great in hanging baskets, and should receive sun to part shade with little summer watering. -Monterey Bay Nursery

Water Saving Tip:

Group plants with similar water needs together so that some plants aren't over watered to meet the needs of their more thirsty neighbors.

Never include shrub and lawn areas in the same sprinkler zone.
