Blue Chalk Sticks is a highly popular groundcover succulent valued for its intense powdery-blue color and dense spreading habit. It roots easily wherever stems touch the soil. It is incredibly drought-tolerant but looks best with occasional deep watering during the hottest months. Plant in well-draining soil. It can become leggy over time; simply cut the stems back by half in early spring to encourage dense branching. The cuttings can be easily rooted to start new patches. Protect from severe frost.
