Through the season the leaves grow and lighten to fresh green, and by late summer the plant is covered in a big dome of bubblegum-pink star flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeeper pink seed heads follow in fall. It is compact, dependable and drought tolerant, well suited to the front of a sunny border or a rock garden, and a late-season favorite of bees and butterflies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA massive dome of small, star-shaped flowers in bubblegum pink completely covers the foliage in late summer, later turning to deeper pink seed heads. Leaves are small, fleshy and sharply toothed, cool blue-green in spring and lighter green by late summer. The plant is a low, rounded, semi-upright mound 10 to 12 inches tall and 16 to 20 inches wide. At peak it looks like a soft pink cushion with barely any green showing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis compact sedum thrives in the same hot, sunny, well-drained ground as lavender, and its rounded succulent mounds make a neat, contrasting edge along the front of a lavender bed while blooming after the lavender is cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun in average to poor, well-drained soil; it is very drought tolerant once established and rots in soggy ground.
