Author's NotesThis can be an aggressive spreader, since most any little piece will root forming new plants. I have seen large plantings of Angelina and in the spring they are an extremely bright yellow. In my garden they are very hardy. I like the seasonal change of the foliage color. I was at a friends garden and I asked him how Sedum Aneglina got to this part of his garden. He said the dogs run through the garden and drop off pieces.
