Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Lovely, dense, evergreen sedum shared with us by plantsman Ozzie Johnson from one of this trips to Japan. A sedum with dark, red-tinted rosettes forming dense colonies seemingly just as at home in light, woodland shade or full sun. Eye-catching for us jaded sedum-ophiles. Drought tolerant but better with summer water and Frost hardy in USDA zone 7.
