Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Sedum 'Class Act' has a compact, upright (non-flopping) habit and full heads of the most stunning rose-pink flowers that emerge from white buds. The intensity of colour is amazing in the later summer and fall garden. Upright stonecrops are useful nearly year round: mounds of succulent new growth in early spring, structural upright clumps through summer, heads of showy flower heads in late summer and fall, and dried flower stems in winter. Use in the border and container, as a mass planting, and for cut and dried flowers. Provides seed for overwintering birds. Popular with bees and butterflies. Deer resistant.
Award winning, sturdy, compact new Sedum with an upright posture 18” tall and 14” wide. Full heads of rose-pink flowers late summer to fall that make pollinators REALLY happy. Full sun in lean, well-drained soil; drought tolerant but will take regular water with good drainage. Also great in pots. USDA Z4-10
