Highlights
Sedum spurium (Phedimus spurius) 'Elizabeth': An easy ground cover that brightens up a garden with rich red and copper tones. This forgiving spreader tolerates rocky soil, full sun, drought, and hard frosts. It shows its best colors when moderately stressed by full sun and/or cold weather. It blooms in late summer with tiny, pink, star-shaped flowers. It survives winter by going dormant and losing foliage, but re-sprouts each spring.
Hardy Sedum are easy, frost-hardy plants that thrive outdoors with full sun and great drainage. Plant in raised beds or containers with drainage holes and mix 50% coarse sand, pumice, or perlite into the soil to prevent rot. Regular water will help young plants establish roots and spread quickly, but mature Sedum can tolerate several months of drought. If you choose to propagate by hand, cut off the top 2.0"+ of stem and transplant it to re-root.
