Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Yum-yum! Sedums are like chocolates in my garden, I can never have too many. ‘Ringmore Ruby’ is the sweet raspberry cocoa truffle in the box. Deep coffee colored glossy leaves & cherry red stems will provide a pop anywhere in the garden. Go crazy & combine it with limey green Crassula lycopodioides. Super easy to grow, it stays a compact 18” x 12”. Cheery ruby blooms abound July through August (deadhead & you might even get a Spring show). In true succulent fashion, this beauty doesn’t need a lot of water & likes well drained soil. Pretty in a pot, too!
