Sedum cauticola 'Steel the Show' is a ground cover stonecrop provides sweeping appeal with its silver leafed, bright blue-green foliage. Looks fantastic on its own with its clumping habit, masses of cute foliage and textural appeal. One of the latest to bloom extending colour into fall, foliage is completely hidden behind tiny, star-shaped pink flowers with bees in hot pursuit. Growth habit is 6 to 8 inches tall with a 14 to 16 inch spread. Tough and easy to grow, loves a hot dry location and thrives in containers, in and over rock walls, mass planting and border edging. Bee magnet. Deer and rabbit resistant.
