Notes

'Oktoberfest' biting stonecrop (Sedum acre 'Oktoberfest') is a perennial for rock gardens, borders, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy soil. Bees, butterflies, and birds visit its blooms from early to late summer. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It is evergreen, so the low mat stays green through winter.

Pairs well with Prairie dropseed, Ice plant, and Carnaval De Nice tulip.
