Our most popular Sedum, this distinctive variety emerges in spring with scalloped bright green leaves that provide wonderful TEXTURE! As if that is not enough…generous heads of raspberry flowers come on in late summer and early fall! Forms a neat 10-12" mound in full sun, most soils…drought tolerant but appreciates regular water. Performs admirably in the garden or in a pot. 1000+ buyers a year can't be wrong!
