A recent addition to our garden that has gotten lots of attention and comments from visitors, is Gaye’s Peach Moss. From our friend Chris Baker in Columbus, OH, this flowering succulent looks like a typical rose moss with its usual foliage and low-growing habit. However, when it blooms it knocks your socks off with enormous flowers with pink centers that lighten toward the petal’s edges, eventually becoming a gorgeous peach hue. It is a very unique and attractive color combination. If you want to grow something easy, durable, uncommon and not eaten by deer, give Gaye’s Peach Moss a try.
