Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A very attractive new Sedum from Brent Hovarth. 'Thundercloud' forms dense clumps of finely cut pale green foliage. It erupts into bloom with starry white flowers in late summer. Grows 8" tall by 15" wide and likes a sunny well drained spot. This new Sedum has proven quite tolerant of humid summer weather. Shipping qt. pots.
This intriguing sedum offers great texture and foliage appeal with handsome, gray green, serrated leaves on short, compact plants to ten inches. Totally covered by billows of small white to soft pink flowers when in bloom. 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.
An Intrinsic Introduction! Unique pointed grey green foliage emerges in spring on strongly mounding domes. Slowly expanding to 10-12" mounds with white spectabile type flowers the end of August into September. Full sun; well drained soil. PPAF
