Woodland Stonecrop - Sedum ternatum Woodland Stonecrop has beautiful white flowers, which bloom April to May. Unfortunately, probably due to colder than usual temperatures, these hadn&#039;t bloomed yet. The common name of &quot;stonecrop&quot; refers to its ability to thrive on boulders, where its succulent leaves help it to retain moisture in shallow soil.  I found a patch of it growing on top of plant roots along the edge of a creek.<br />
