    By: Little Prince of Oregon

    One of the best of the southern Asian sedums, to 18” or more in jade-plantesque green mounds that can be thinned to exhibit a tree-like form...otherwise can be used as dense ground cover. Bright yellow flowers. Full sun to part shade; summer water for best appearance. Frost hardy to between 0 and 10 °F - USDA zone 7.
