Sparkling as a "frosty morning", the silver and white variegated foliage of this succulent is lovely all season and a superb backdrop for large clusters of clear-pink flowers in early fall; Hines Nursury introduction. S/M-D
A one foot mound of upright, succulent stems with silver green leaves outlined in creamy white. Corymbs of tiny white flowers (sometimes with a touch of pink) Aug > Sept. This sedum requires full sun or the stems will droop! Most soils with decent drainage; happy in a pot…or not. Easy to grow. Dies back in winter.
A variegated stonecrop with beautiful white edges and pink flowers. We like this cultivar though some stems can sometimes revert back to green which should be removed. 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.
A clumping, winter dormant perennial grown for it's highly ornamental, ice white, green centred, rubbery leaves, which surround the thick, succulent, erect stems, and it's dome-like heads of densely packed, white, star shaped flowers which it bears in autumn. A tough, hardy plant for any reasonably sunny, well drained position.Excellent in pots, it handles the confined rootspace well and isn't demanding on water.Cut back to ground level in winter.The stems can be pruned back in late spring to make the plant more campact and to delay flowering.

Striking white variegated Sedum reminiscent of a winter day in Jackson, Wyoming. Leaves have a central blotch of green and gray with pure white margins. Sturdy stems to 15" bear white flowers with variegated bracts. Full sun along the coast, some shade inland and moderate garden water. Winter deciduous. Hardy to 0F. Garden origin.
Icy blue green and white leaves. Not as tall as some of the fall blooming varieties.
