Product Details
Highlights
Sedum telephium 'Purple Emperor': A plum purple Sedum that can grow to a whopping two feet tall and spread just as far. Be sure to give it plenty of sun when actively growing to maintain those dramatic purple colors.
Please Note: Dormant in winter months, but will typically re-sprout by mid-May in most climates.
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.
