Zn 3. Pink flowers. Mahogany-red foliage.

By: Little Prince of Oregon

A useful groundcover with rich burgundy foliage and pink to red flowers. Evergreen.

By: Phoenix Perennials and Specialty Plants Ltd.

There's no escaping the spell that these devilishly handsome dark leaves and neon bright blooms will cast on you. Topped with a rosy red summertime icing of tiny star-shaped flowers arranged in 4-branched clusters, the rich mahogany red foliage is thick, obovate and toothed at the tips, while shrouding merlot-infused trailing stems. 'Voodoo' conjures a short trouble free carpet-like ground cover that relishes sandy or rocky soil, stays evergreen in milder climates, detests over watering and abates erosion.

Stunning dark mahogany-red leaves, with bright magenta flowers in mid summer. A great ground cover for a hot, dry site. Looks flat-out stunning combined with silver or blue leaves plants like some of the more vigorous dianthus, or with yellows like Sedum 'Angelina' Zone 3 -Joseph

By: Arrowhead Alpines

Much like Sedum 'Dragon's Blood' but lower in habit, it boasts dark mahogany toned foliage complimented by clusters of rosy-red flowers. 4-6" high with sprawling habit.

A terrific, trouble-free edger, trailer or groundcover for a dry garden! And so contrastic with an intense, reddish mahogany, foliage mat to 18” across. Gorgeous, almost neon, rosy-red flowers appear June thru August held tight & low against the foliage. To only 4”-6” tall, pinch once in awhile for densest mat. Durable, carefree, & long-lived, it also makes a nice container subject. Fast growing - space 1’ apart. Drought tolerant, long lived, deer resistant & attracts butterflies!
