Notes

'Steel the Show' sedum (Sedum 'Steel the Show') is a succulent for borders, pollinator gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average soil of most types. Butterflies, bees, and birds visit it, and it tolerates drought. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. It spreads 12 to 24 inches wide, so give it room.

Pairs well with Coneflower, Lavender, and Russian sage.
