Notes
Oregon stonecrop (Sedum oreganum) is a succulent for containers and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It stays under 6 inches tall and spreads 12 to 24 inches. The evergreen leaves tolerate drought, and yellow flowers attract butterflies and bees. Deer tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Stonecrop, Cat mint, and Blue grama.
