Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Sedum 'Conga Line' is an award-winning stonecrop with an ever-changing colour display! Succulent foliage evolves from green to purple to burgundy with late summer floral displays of peach, coral and cream. Plants have a vase-like form to 20 inches tall and 16 inches wide. 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.
