Notes

Sedum (Sedum palmeri) is a succulent for rock gardens, wall plantings, and groundcover. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Its evergreen rosettes of broad, rounded, blue-green leaves look good all year, and clusters of yellow flowers open in summer. It tumbles over a wall, so let it spill down the edge, and sharp drainage is preferred.

Pairs well with Fountain grass, Stargazer lily, and Foxglove.
