Notes

'Pure Joy' october daphne (Hylotelephium 'Pure Joy') is a perennial for borders, rock gardens, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It grows 9 to 12 inches tall and 15 to 21 inches wide. Bubblegum pink flowers open in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and they attract butterflies, bees, and birds. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
